Funds and Financial Services
Funds operate in a fast moving environment. As regulation of the financial services industry becomes increasingly complex, those involved in the sector need to be aware of the changing legal background.
Shepherd and Wedderburn's dedicated Funds and Financial Services Group has an established track record of advising clients in this sector on a wide variety of legal issues. Whether establishing, reconstructing, buying, selling or promoting a fund, our aim is to provide effective legal solutions to meet our clients' commercial requirements.
Focusing predominantly on onshore funds, our team provides a seamless and integrated service. Indeed, our work with Funds clients goes beyond the development and management of their products to encompass advice on issues such as HR, property, company pension schemes, share option schemes and intellectual property issues.
