Sovereign wealth funds have a distinct mandate to assist with implementation of sovereign policy, or simply to preserve and enhance the national wealth for the benefit of the country. We provide seasoned, pragmatic advice to our sovereigns clients combining strong industry knowledge and familiarity of institutional structures with an appropriate sensitivity to the special concerns and perspectives which underpin these transactions.
We also advise the managers of sovereign wealth funds on regulatory compliance and transaction advice relating to the investment and management of assets.
