Investment Funds
We advise on structures domiciled in a number of jurisdictions and are particularly well placed to provide bespoke advice. Our team has years of experience advising family offices, funds, investment vehicles, their managers and investors. We work with all types of funds and hybrid structures rather than narrowly focussing on specific fund types.
Why Choose our Funds lawyers?
We can advise on all types of funds, investment vehicles and managed account structures and work closely with our colleagues in Derivatives, Real Estate and Private Equity to offer seamless support in relation to both the top structure and the underlying transactions and assets.
Our clients include start-up, small and emerging managers right through to some of the best known names in fund management.
We also assist investors when they are establishing their own structure or investment mandate (e.g. managed accounts or funds of one) and when they are investing via a fund, investment vehicle or join venture arrangement.
Our team is based in London, Frankfurt, Luxembourg and Paris.
