With a growing core funds practice that was recently strengthened by the arrival in May 2024 of Emmanuel Gutton  from the Association of the Luxembourg Fund Industry (ALFI), and also able to draw upon fund-centric expertise across the office's corporate and tax practice groups, White & Case S.à r.l. increasingly has the resources to provide the necessary Luxembourg structuring to service the firm's institutional global funds clients. Many of these are private equity focused, where the team, that is headed by Arnaud Cagi-Nicolau, is appreciated for its 'ability to navigate complex international regulations, while offering pragmatic and business-oriented advice'.
