Her practice covers the full range of investment funds including retail and professional funds, with special expertise in alternative investment funds such as private equity, real estate, private credit and other alternative asset funds and investment management arrangements. Silke has been the counsel for several ground-breaking deals for some of the largest asset managers.

In addition, Silke has developed extensive experience in the field of sustainable finance and advises our clients on sustainable finance disclosures and taxonomy.
