Investment funds
When you need to structure and raise investment funds, our expertise and global connections are second to none.
In the investment funds market, we've advised on a wide range of fund structures. We fully understand the complex regulations that govern investment funds. And our tax team has extensive experience of advising on investment fund structures.
Thanks to our membership of the TerraLex network, we have strong relationships with more than 150 law firms in 100-plus jurisdictions worldwide. This means we'll get you the best advice possible on raising funds across the globe.
Recently, we worked with Griffin Capital on the raising of a £350m UK real estate fund. Also in this sector, we helped the multi-billion-dollar US real estate fund Rialto raise funding in Europe. Other major projects involving our team include the restructuring of Lansdowne, one of the UK’s largest hedge funds, and fundraising for the student accommodation business, Student Cribs.
We have authored a new guide on fund restructurings, which has recently been published in conjunction with the British Private Equity and Venture Capital Association (BVCA).
