Our Investment Funds Practice advises clients across the range of funds on the full spectrum of issues related to fund structuring, regulation, formation and management. Whether it is private equity, hedge funds, infrastructure, or real estate funds, fund-of-funds and other collective investment schemes targeted at institutional and accredited investors, we seek to ensure that our clients have the tools to make the most suitable investment decisions.
Our expertise in fund formation, structuring, legal documentation and regulatory advice (including representing clients in liaising with Singapore regulatory authorities), as well as familiarity with the Singapore Tax Resident Fund scheme, enables us to provide our clients with tax-optimised fund structures.
Our clients benefit from our expertise in a variety of structures and our experience advising on innovative, diverse and complex transactions both domestically and regionally. They are drawn to our provision of innovative yet practical advice across jurisdictions and our ability to anticipate and proactively respond to their needs.
We work closely with other practices, including our Mergers & Acquisitions, Banking & Finance and Corporate Real Estate teams, to customise complete and practical solutions for our clients. This multi-disciplinary model allows us to provide a one-stop service valued by our clients.
