Linklaters launches PensionsInvest - new integrated legal advice service dedicated to pension fund management
02 March 2010
Linklaters today launches PensionsInvest, a new initiative set up to provide clients with integrated legal advice on understanding and managing pensions investment risk. The group has been set up in response to the increasing importance and complexity of investment issues for pension schemes and funds.
Through the initiative, Linklaters is able to draw upon more than 100 lawyers from the firm's global pensions, investment funds, derivatives, tax and insurance practices - enabling Linklaters to provide a service to clients of even greater strength and depth.
Linklaters pensions partner, Rosalind Knowles, said:
"PensionsInvest has been launched as a response to our clients' needs. We believe that this co-ordinated, but wide-ranging approach enables us to provide institutional investors with the critical edge in negotiating optimal investment terms. The PensionsInvest team has a highly detailed knowledge of market norms and legal pitfalls posed by the various forms of investment structures and documentation."
