Our Funds group comprises lawyers specialising in corporate, regulatory, taxation and finance law.
We are recognised as one of the market leaders in structuring indirect real estate and private equity investments, acting for several of the most active fund structures. We regularly advise on the most appropriate vehicles (onshore and offshore) to use for fund and joint venture structures. Our work covers the full remit of activity in this area from advising on the establishment of the structure, to assisting with fund restructuring, transitional changes and exit strategies, both on behalf of the fund and individual investors.
We work closely with our award winning Tax practice. In an area where tax efficiency is key, the Tax team advises on all tax aspects of the types of funds outlined below. They also give commercial and practical advice to Fund managers on carry/promote planning. The Tax team works closely with our overseas offices and extensive preferred firm network on complex international fund structures to give a global tax reach. The team participates in industry groups and Treasury/HMRC consultation processes in relation to REITs, PAIFs and investment funds generally.
