Over the past two decades, the investment funds and private capital marketplace has become subject to an increasingly complicated regulatory environment.

Our Investment Funds & Private Capital Regulatory practice includes attorneys with deep experience handling sensitive and complex regulatory and compliance issues. 

In the U.S., we regularly advise on Investment Company Act status and structuring issues, private fund investment manager registration, Investment Advisers Act, Securities Act, Securities Exchange Act and other compliance, SEC examinations and enforcement. We also advise on the formation and operation of registered alternative funds and products. 

Fund sponsors and asset managers operating outside the U.S. face an ever-evolving regulatory landscape, particularly in Europe. We provide governance and other compliance arrangements to comply with, among others, the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD), MiFID II, and PRIIPS and applications for FCA authorization.
