Natasha Chell features on latest IFSEA podcast

Friday 28 October 2022

Natasha Chell co hosted the latest IFSEA podcast on ‘What are the latest immigration challenges and opportunities facing senior executives and employers, both in the US and UK? – Reduced visa processing times, immigration due diligence during an M&A & introduction of HP visas’.

In this recording, Natasha Chell and Jonathan A. Grode, Green and Spiegel LLC (US), explore developments in US and UK immigration that have occurred since the 3rd IFSEA International Conference on Risk, Reward and Reputation Management Issues for Senior Executives & Founders in June 2022.

In particular, Jonathan and Natasha discuss:

  • The reduction in processing times for US and UK visas and the positive impact on firms and senior executives.
  • What procedures will employers and employees need to follow to ensure immigration due diligence is maintained during a merger and/acquisition?
  • The introduction of the High Potential Individual (HPI) visa in the UK and the reasons that we have not seen the expected uptake in visas of this kind.
