WestCap hosted Chief Financial Officers from across our portfolio for our annual CFO Summit in NYC. Best practices for post-M&A and cash management were the main themes of the day. A key takeaway: Post-merger integration is complicated and takes a lot longer than one would think, with cultural acclimation being the most important driver of success. Thanks to those who joined us for the engaging discussions!
