Description
The current economic crisis and the state of financial markets have had a tremendous impact on private equity, leading to a huge drop off in fund raising and deal making activities. There has also been increasing regulatory and legislative focus on private equity funds and their roles in the financial markets leading to the downturn, as well as their potential roles going forward. In this environment, private equity faces a number of significant challenges as it redefines itself within the rapidly changing financial and business world.
At this program, a distinguished panel of experts will discuss the basics of the private equity practice starting with fund formation to the fundamentals of private equity investing. Experts will guide you through an array of key topics, including structuring private equity investments and private equity funds, dealing with fund sponsor issues, current regulatory, legislative and tax issues and how private equity funds are addressing issues raised by the current environment, including fund and investor liquidity issues.
This program is designed to provide an understanding of the business and legal issues relating to private equity investment.
