Our clients include both established private equity firms, large funds and investment companies as well as start-ups and fund investors. Our experience acting as advisors to both founders and investors has given us a holistic understanding and can ensure that the fund’s strategy is attractive to investors and vice versa.
As the private equity operations becomes increasingly driven by regulations, we ensure, in collaboration with our market-leading regulatory practice group, that establishment and management is carried out in compliance with applicable requirements.
We advise our private equity clients throughout the entire investment process, from investment, through management, to exit, for example through auction procedures or IPOs. Together with our market-leading lawyers in private and public M&A and our extensive experience in private equity, we can tailor the process to the client’s specific needs.
We greatly value our relationship with the portfolio company during the holding period and, thanks to our broad-based practice, we can offer value-adding advice in everything from additional acquisitions to incentive programs. The knowledge about the portfolio company accumulated during the holding period and its development is later used as leverage when planning the exit strategy.
