With 'a nuanced understanding of market trends, regulations, and challenges', CMS excels in providing 'cutting-edge innovation and a personal, client-focused approach' to an investment management-focused client base that includes private equity firms, family offices and real estate funds. Much of the work is of a cross-border nature, where the team is particularly well-positioned to advise by virtue not only of its knowledge of international tax laws but also its collaborative approach with global offices at the firm. 'Brilliant' team head Frédéric Feyten 'thinks out of the box and always provides tailored suited advice'.
