Foley & Lardner LLP partner Curt Creely is quoted in the Bloomberg article, “Shutdown Fears Are Back and Nascent IPO Rebound Could Get Hit,” commenting on the potential impact of a federal government shutdown for companies looking to go public.

Creely said it is the smaller, private companies that could be hit disproportionately hard by any shutdown.
