Leveraging full service expertise throughout the firm’s global network of offices, A&O Shearman‘s Hong Kong team is well-placed to advise on the structuring and subsequent operational and transactional work for regional and international fund managers across a range of alternative asset classes. As well as his core GP fund structuring work (which includes deep knowledge of the Hong Kong LPF regime and of secondaries work), team head James Ford is also a popular choice among institutional investors deploying capital in private equity funds. In her role as head of the office’s regulatory practice, Charlotte Robins also regularly advises asset managers on discrete regulatory matters, including as it relates to licensing and disclosure obligations, as well as in the context of transactional work. As a result of a merger between A&O and Shearman & Sterling in May 2024, the team now includes New York, PRC and Hong Kong-qualified partner Lorna Chen who is adept at advising on investor-side work, including for sovereign wealth clients investing in private funds as well as on co-investment fund projects throughout the globe.
