Registered Funds

About

Provided by Goodwin

Goodwin is one of the nation’s leading law firms serving the registered fund industry. We provide top-level strategic and practical advice to a broad range of asset managers and registered investment companies on the full gamut of corporate, transactional, regulatory and governance matters.

We are counsel to numerous fund complexes and fund independent directors as well as a broad range of service providers in the fund industry, such as major custodian banks, transfer agents, retirement plan service organizations and securities lending agents. A distinguishing factor with respect to our practice is that we represent clients in connection with mergers and acquisitions involving financial services companies, including, asset management firms that advise registered and private funds.

Our practice includes all types of registered funds, including traditional mutual funds, closed-end funds, ETFs, interval funds, tender offer funds, money market funds, sub-advised funds, and alternative asset funds (including funds focused on strategies drawn from the hedge fund and private equity space). Closed-end funds have seen a lot of activist attention the past 12 months. We are a leader in that space.
