Fund Finance

We advise a variety of lender and borrower clients – including financial institutions, debt funds, general partners and sponsors, fund managers and limited partners – on a range of lending solutions used by investors and funds to support their liquidity needs. These include facilities to fund general partners in meeting their capital requirements or the ongoing costs and expenses of running the fund, and facilities to individual limited partners to meet capital calls or to invest in additional funds.

Working closely with colleagues in our specialist funds and tax teams as part of our multi-disciplinary offering, we provide clients with a full range of transaction support, including:

• advising on transaction structuring;
• performing due diligence on fund structures and documentation (including limited partnership agreements, subscription agreements, side letters and other related fund documents);
• drafting, negotiating and agreeing debt documentation (including security, guarantee and subordination documentation, where relevant, and full suite of related ancillary documentation);
• coordinating workstreams with our network of trusted firms in overseas jurisdictions; and
• managing and coordinating signing and completion processes.
