Overview:

In recent years, the private fund industry has experienced massive growth which has significantly outnumbered public equities. More notably, private equity funds continue to foster and diversify into credit, leasing, real estate, and infrastructure investments among others making private equity firms enter the year with expectations of increased transaction volumes. However, as the industry maintains its upward trend, several complexities begin to emerge such as increased litigation risks and regulatory scrutiny. The upcoming elections also continue to portend uncertainty surrounding regulatory enforcement and legislations. It is, therefore, imperative to closely monitor the trends and developments in this specific area.

Vessey (STINSON LLP) will provide the audience with an in-depth analysis of the recent developments in private funds regulation.
