About

Provided by Carey Olsen

Corporate and investment funds work is a cornerstone of our legal services offering, and we have one of the largest corporate and investment funds teams in the offshore legal market.

Our BVI lawyers are skilled at creating new structures for commercial growth, advising on public and private mergers and acquisitions and completing exchange-based listings, as well as advising boards and shareholders.

The scale of our corporate practice enables us to structure the team according to our role, whether we are providing focused advice directly to our clients or acting in partnership with onshore advisers on complex international transactions. 

From an investment funds perspective, we have substantial experience in advising on the full spectrum of fund strategies and asset classes, including credit and debt funds, cleantech funds, real estate funds, private equity funds, venture capital funds, hedge funds, green funds, crypto funds and infrastructure funds.
