[QUOTE="futuretraineesolicitor, post: 112636, member: 4098"] Hello [USER=17165]@George Maxwell[/USER] [USER=17155]@AvniD[/USER] [USER=16764]@James Carrabino[/USER], hope you all are doing well. I had a question on Private Equity so it'd be really helpful if you could answer it. Correct me if I'm wrong but most law firms will have 2 separate divisions when dealing with PE firms. Firstly, they will have an investment funds team that'll help the PE firm in transferring the money from the investors to the PE firms by structuring a fund to pool that money. Once the money is transferred, the fund is closed and the PE firms can use that money to do deals. Secondly, law firms will have a core private equity team that will structure the deals that the PE firms will do once they get the money in the fund. This would mean that the PE firm would use the fund money to invest in companies that it can add value to and flip it for a profit in future. Firstly, I want to know if I've understood the two teams correctly? Secondly, I want to know if both these teams can bundle their services and sell them to the client, I mean, can a law firm that has a good investment funds team but not a good PE team pitch its reputed investment funds team and cross-sell its PE team so that it can work on both, the closing of the fund as well the dealmaking? Or does that not happen? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
