Loyens & Loeff
The 'commercially driven, client focused and responsive' team at Loyens & Loeff provides 'solutions-oriented and pragmatic' advice to fund managers/sponsors across a myriad of structures, including closed-end and hybrid within the alternative funds space. Here, the team is appreciated for its ability to provide a one-stop-shop service across the spectrum of legal needs, from structuring and ongoing compliance, through to financing and the pursuant downstream work. Team head Marc Meyers has 'in-depth knowledge of AIFMD matters and interpretations from the CSSF', and is a popular choice among fund managers for the structuring and regulatory issues associated with infrastructure, real estate and private debt funds. Meyers has also been at the forefront of the increased move towards the democratisation of private funds, as has the 'very efficient' Christophe Boyer, with both regularly working together on structuring mandates in the sector. The 'insightful and creative' Veronica Aroutiunian is a 'powerful advocate for the firm's clients' interests', particularly in the context of private equity and real estate fund structuring. Jérôme Mullmaier provides 'practical business-oriented solutions’ to multinational clients on alternative funds structuring and related regulatory aspects, where he is particularly appreciated for his 'deep ability to think creatively and present innovative solutions'. Vassiliyan Zanev provides finance specialism in the implementation of funds.
