Sacker & Partners LLP

Pensions.

Partner and head of the firm’s finance and investment group. He has very wide experience of advising schemes about the legal aspects of their investment arrangements.

For a number of clients he has dealt with major restructurings of investments resulting from the adoption of a more “liability driven” approach – including the negotiation of ISDA Master Agreements with a panel of counterparties, swaps overlay agreements, new investment management and custody agreements and due diligence on a wide range of investments including hedge funds, GTAA, private equity, infrastructure and credit funds.

This has also involved advising trustees during their discussions about new strategies, including the development of an appropriate governance structure for the new investment model.
