Walkers supports new private fund launch

Monday 09 November 2020


The local team of Walkers has advised a newly-formed London-based Investment Manager on the establishment of a Jersey Private Fund.

Group Partner Leanne Wallser and Senior Associate Joseph Barker-Willis advised on the Jersey law elements of the fund launch, working with lead Counsel Schulte Roth and Zabel LLP.

The Jersey Private Fund was created with the aim of taking advantage of the manager's access to private opportunities across different geographies and sectors, and will invest in private growth opportunities globally.

Ms Wallser said: "We are very pleased to have been able to advise on both the establishment of its new business and the launch of this fund – this is another example of the versatility of the JPF model, and further demonstration that Jersey's access to European capital markets via the National Private Placement Regimes is holding up and is a clearly understood selling point for the Island as a funds jurisdiction."
