In recent years, the funds management industry in Australia has been subject to major change, with the introduction of the Financial Services Reform Act, ASIC policy statements and recent CLERP 9 amendments to the Corporations Act. In this increasingly complex legal environment, fund managers need authoritative advice on the complete range of industry issues.
With more than 80 lawyers, Minter Ellison's leading funds management practice specialises in:
- superannuation
- life and general insurance
- investment markets
- alternative investments, including hedge, index and currency funds
- corporate law
- retail and wholesale managed investment schemes.
Our practice is heavily involved with the financial services industry and we fully understand its operational issues and regulatory impacts. This focus, together with the team's commercial and outcome-driven approach, means that we can provide cost-effective and valuable advice to our clients.
We also have a dedicated Real Estate Funds Management group, which draws on firm-wide legal and commercial excellence in investment and financial services, commercial property, tax, capital raisings and debt financing.
Our clients include fund managers, trustee companies, superannuation trustees, life companies, custodians and asset consultants, including some of the world's leading names in financial services.
