Private Equity

Fund Formation & Management

Combining local market knowledge with world-class problem solving.

Whether helping a first-time sponsor translate a novel investment thesis into a workable fund structure, or providing compliance advice to an established advisor managing multiple funds, our multidisciplinary team regularly advises both established funds seeking ongoing regulatory counsel and early-stage funds raising capital for the first time.

Our attorneys have recent practical experience advising promoters on navigating the overlapping and evolving regulatory regimes applicable to new asset classes like cryptocurrency and opportunity zones. We also work closely with more traditional funds seeking returns from early-stage venture capital investments or innovative public market strategies.

In addition to providing continuing counsel on the myriad of regulations applicable to fund managers, we advise on portfolio development and exit strategies. We leverage the firm’s industry-focused resources and experience in critical sectors such as health care, manufacturing, franchise and hospitality, energy, and technology to assist PE funds in efficiently and creatively executing portfolio transactions.

Our fund formation team, working from offices throughout Frost Brown Todd’s growing footprint, combines regional market know-how with a national focus on trends and regulatory developments shaping the private equity industry.
