ALL FUNDS. NO GAMES
We don’t play games when it comes to other people’s money.
Our fully-integrated global service covers all bases and delivers for sponsors and investors – eliminating blind spots and minimising risk. From sponsors to investors, formation to fund finance, or regulatory and tax advice to sponsor governance and doing the deals, we combine imaginative approaches with unique insights.
For clear, practical advice that delivers real impact across the entire life of a fund. A win-win, in every way.
Some of the challenges we've helped countless sponsors, managers, finance providers and other stakeholders in the private funds market tackle include:
- Establishing funds, across multiple funds domiciles;
- Advising on investment in funds, including negotiating for fund investors;
- Navigating regulatory requirements: as part of funds set-up, investments or throughout the whole fund lifecycle;
- Addressing tax implications associated with making investments in the UK and internationally; and
- Implementing carried interest incentive schemes.
We have advised on capital deployments by LPs in excess of USD 100 billion.
Straightforward counsel for any private fund, any stage, anywhere.
