Investment Funds & Asset Management (International & Cross-Border)

Chambers Review

Simpson Thacher & Bartlett combines a well-established London team with a top-tier New York practice and is renowned for handling complex cross-border work with a strong focus on transactional mandates. The UK team is primarily responsible for the law firm's work and clients across Europe as well as working in conjunction with lawyers in the law firm's principal hub of resources in New York, which means it is chiefly engaged on high-value international work.

The London office provides clients with impressive experience in large international M&A, cross-border financing and a strong focus on the private equity sector. With equally strong teams in both New York and London, the funds practice works to assist major asset managers on sophisticated global mandates. The global funds practice advises on major fund formations, targeting investment in the full range of asset classes in diverse jurisdictions. It continues to assist these clients throughout the life-cycle of their funds, including advising on significant acquisitions and disposals of assets.
