Ogier advises Canadian family office on establishing investment vehicle to hold private equity asset

Ogier advised a Canadian family office in relation to the establishment of an investment vehicle to hold European private equity assets for the benefit of family members. 

Our work included Jersey law advice on the acquisition, holding and disposal of assets and in respect of distributions of income and capital through the structure. 

Alongside the investment structure, a Jersey carried interest structure was established for the benefit of senior investment principals. 

We worked closely with onshore counsel to provide Jersey legal and regulatory advice in relation to the entities in the wider structure, including under Jersey's investment fund legislation and the Financial Services (Jersey) Law 1998.
