Overview
Some of the largest pension funds, sovereign wealth funds and investors look to us for counsel in the development of their fund formation and fund investment activities. We work with sponsors to structure and establish funds seeking to raise capital in North America and worldwide. We also advise investors in their investments across the entire fund investment spectrum; from passive fund investments, to separately managed accounts and platforms, funds-of-one, and co-investments.
Through our Canadian and New York offices, we provide comprehensive cross-border counsel, including advising Canadian investors on their investments in U.S. funds and forming private funds with Canadian and U.S. investors. We also advise on tax, regulatory and securities law issues clients may encounter.
