Funds Management

Need advice?

The funds management industry in Australia continues to grow dynamically:

  • With funds from local superannuation contributions steadily increasing funds under management;
  • Attracting the attention of foreign investors; and
  • Through more varied product offerings from both new and established managers.

Our funds management team provides advisory, documentation and transactional services to all parts of the financial services industry, from licensing, fund establishment, product development and structuring through to fund raising and commercial transactions.

We act for a wide variety of clients including fund managers (domestic and international), advisers, financial institutions, superannuation funds (industry, corporate, public sector and retail), professional trustees and custodians. That experience ensures a more focused and efficient legal service delivery for our clients.
