Private equity investment is all about long-term return, so structuring the investment terms to achieve that outcome is vital. Our team provides results-focused advice throughout the investment lifecycle, from deal structuring to exit. We advise on all aspects of an investment, including setting up new funds, buy-outs, exits and portfolio acquisitions, as well as on a range of operational and structural challenges, such as tax and employment. We help with around fifty private equity deals a year and our team spans Europe and the West and East coasts of the US, allowing us to work seamlessly across borders.

In 2016 we advised on private equity transactions with an aggregate deal value in excess of £3 billion.
