Investment Funds & Asset Management
Our Investment Funds & Asset Management team combines legal excellence with commercial understanding. We provide comprehensive advice to initiators and investors of funds and other investment structures and develop efficient solutions in a dynamic legal and tax environment.
We advise fund sponsors and asset managers across all major asset classes (including private equity, debt, real estate, renewable energy, infrastructure, crypto and securities) on the formation of funds and other forms of collective and individual investments.
We also represent leading institutional investors on their investments in funds and other investment structures. Our clients include funds of funds, life and health insurance companies, pension schemes, CTAs and family offices. As part of our fund due diligence services, we address all key legal, tax, and regulatory aspects, negotiate side letters and assist in the investor onboarding process.
In collaboration with our international partner law firms, we cover all major fund jurisdictions, serving as your central point of contact throughout.
