Investment Funds: Hedge Funds

About

Provided by Dechert LLP

Doing business successfully in Asia Pacific requires commitment, local knowledge and adaptability. Faced with complex regulations and business practices, incoming investors appreciate counsel that combines robust representation with respect for local sensitivities. Asian corporations, in turn, often require a law firm with sophisticated commercial judgment and cross-border capabilities when establishing or expanding a footprint outside the region.

Recognized internationally as a leading adviser for the hedge fund industry, Dechert is the firm of choice for many of the world’s largest hedge fund and emerging fund managers seeking comprehensive, cross-border service. Our lawyers help clients launch funds, raise capital, achieve tax efficiency and meet regulatory requirements. We advise hedge and alternative asset/strategy funds that engage in private equity/activist strategies through the use of tailored fund structures.

Private equity funds headquartered in Asia Pacific and funds investing in the region call on Dechert for advice at every phase of the investment life cycle. We help private equity sponsors to form funds and assist as they raise capital by structuring, negotiating and executing investments on their behalf. We structure funds for good governance and strive at all times for cost and tax efficiency, executing transactions that maximize portfolio value and, ultimately, help achieve successful exits.
