Episode 8: Cannabis and Financing

Cannabis, hemp, and other marijuana related products have permeated the market over the past few years.  Legalization and the financing of cannabis related businesses are two of the biggest impediments to further growth in this sector.  Today, Tom Firestone, partner and co-Chair of Stroock's White Collar group, speaks with the podcast to look at the financing side of the industry.  We discuss the Safe Banking Act of 2021, the recent Farm Bill, and the many grey areas that have emerged in this space.  To learn more about this and other related issues read the Lexis Practical Guidance Cannabis Resource Kit.  To read the transcript of this interview on Practical Guidance visit this link.
