Fund Formation

To thrive in all market conditions, fund sponsors, managers and investors must develop sound strategies based on solid advice. Successful transactions require the support of experienced, innovative and nimble counsel who understand the rules of the game. Our clients are some of the largest and most influential funds industry leaders in the world. While they deploy a wide range of investment approaches, what they have in common is their ability to see potential opportunities in the market—and capitalize on them.

 

Over the course of four decades, our lawyers have helped both sponsors and investors raise, invest and realize billions of dollars in committed capital worldwide. Our team sets itself apart with the market knowledge and proprietary insight into emerging trends in terms and structures. We are partners with our clients, drawing on our deep experience in the funds industry to create solutions, whether they be cutting-edge terms, tax planning, thoughtful regulatory advice, the latest employment issues, strategic manager transactions or successful investor negotiation.

 

We draw support from related practices throughout the firm, allowing us to provide solutions to the changing global regulatory landscape, including concerns around antitrust, cybersecurity, privacy and data protection. We’re also adept at addressing cross-border tax issues, corporate transactional issues, and white-collar, bankruptcy and civil litigation.
