We help you think through how the hedge fund management group should be governed if there are 2 or more key partners or stakeholders in the group. We guide you through the decisions which you may need to make to avoid future disputes and to protect your interests in the event that your relationship with partners or key stakeholders deteriorates. We can review or prepare investment agreements by which seed investors take a stake in the management group or by which you and one or more partners agree to work together to launch the fund. We have extensive experience advising on the types of issues which you may face in these situations including as regards voting rights, the distribution of profits, deadlock in decision making, restrictive covenants and the “ownership” of investors in the event of a subsequent breakup of the partnership.
