With specialist investment fund practitioners in the major asset management jurisdictions, we see the full scope of the global funds market from the perspective of both sponsor and investor.

Our experienced practitioners advise on structuring, formation, taxation and regulation of all types of investment funds, investment management arrangements, separate managed accounts and co-investments for investment in a broad range of asset classes, and are specialists in the growing trend of retailisation in the private funds market. We also have a strong and diverse investor practice and are experts in everything from a lengthy cornerstone investor negotiation to individual, bespoke arrangements, strategic programmes and secondaries transactions, both LP and GP-led. By acting for a wide range of sponsors and investors we gain exposure to the broader market and the latest approach to fund terms.

The Linklaters Investment Funds team regularly benchmark funds in the market and maintain a database of fund terms across asset classes and with a variety of fund counsel and target geographies to ensure a representative sample. In this Linklaters Funds Catch-Up series, our experts will share excerpts of that data and market intelligence on a wide range of topics and asset classes. If you’d like to discuss any of the topics, please get in touch with the individuals listed in an article or any of our contacts below.
