Corporate law in Luxembourg

Our Luxembourg Corporate law team specialises in advising on the establishment of many forms of domestic and cross-border corporate vehicles, investment trusts and partnerships as well as advising on private placements, initial and other public offerings, mergers and acquisitions, reorganisations, joint ventures and disposals, and initial and other public offerings.

Our team is recognised for providing 'detail-oriented and commercial’ advice to private equity funds, in particular, on the Luxembourg structuring of their cross-border M&A mandates.

Luxembourg has successfully established itself as a leading global centre for private equity (PE). It remains the natural choice for PE firms, bolstered by a strong appetite from limited partners – such as asset managers, insurances, pension funds, family offices and high net worth (HNW) individuals – to invest into a wide range of PE strategies, from fund of funds or buyout to more venture capital-oriented strategies.

With the continuing success of ESG-related strategies (SFDR and Taxonomy), the trend towards the retailisation of investment funds (ELTIF 2.0) and regulations framing the digital assets space (MiCAR), the opportunities for the PE space are becoming even more numerous, and exciting times lie ahead.

While the foundations of our practice are in working with private equity investors and asset managers investing in structures all across the world using a Luxembourg platform, we have seen a more recent trend in blue chip clients establishing their position in Luxembourg.

Clients benefit from our offices in key offshore jurisdictions, as well as our ability to frame contractual terms with a mindset towards avoiding any potential litigation further down the line.
