We have a long history of advising leading global asset managers across the full range of their business-critical projects – and more. The intellectual capital of our global team spans decades of work on the most complex regulatory requirements, multijurisdictional matters and thought-leadership initiatives. Our lawyers are known for their advisory and transactional work with the largest financial markets participants on both the buy and sell side.

Global reach

Our asset manager clients work globally, and so do we. Our teams regularly work together on international deals and are used to doing so. Where we do not have a local presence, we leverage the expertise of our Stronger Together network to get clients great results. We are also used to deploying experts from our Tax, Disputes and People & Reward teams (amongst others) to offer a full-service product.

Regulatory relationships

We understand the importance of our clients’ relationship with their regulators and how those need to be factored into transactional activity and processes. A number of our lawyers have undertaken secondments or been employed at the regulators in their jurisdictions.

Private funds expertise

Our Private Funds and Secondaries (PFS) practice offers coverage for the full range of legal challenges faced by private equity managers and other asset managers, including fund formation, marketing, fundraising, portfolio transaction advice, exiting investments, and liquidation or continuation
