Maggie's practice is highly specialised in the formation, structuring, and maintenance of multiple investment vehicles, such as private equity funds, real estate funds, venture capital funds, Web3 funds, hedge funds, mutual funds, and much more. She provides comprehensive services to her clients to ensure that their investments are properly structured and managed in compliance with all applicable offshore legal and regulatory requirements. She works extensively with fund and asset managers, banks, fund administrators, custodians, family offices, and investors.
