Check out the newest episode of our Experts & Insights educational series produced with our community partner TalksOnLaw. The departure of a principal or key figure from a private fund can have profound implications, negatively impacting investor relations, halting the investment period, or triggering automatic redemptions. In this discussion, Desiree Busching, a labor and employment attorney, and Ira Kustin, a private funds lawyer, and member of our Advisory Board, delve into the complexities surrounding fund owner departures. They explore how well-crafted contracts, particularly those involving management and fund structure (sometimes called the "upper tier arrangements") can ensure stability and that rights and obligations are clearly defined, minimizing the friction that can accompany high-level exits. Desiree Busching and Ira Kustin are partners at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, a Champion Sponsor of #womeninfunds. #education #talksonlaw #whistleblowerprotection #uppertier #disputes #equity Attorney CLE accreditation (FREE for WOMEN IN FUNDS members) AZ: General : 0.5 CA: General : 0.5 CT: General : 0.5 NY: Areas of Professional Practice : 0.5 (newly-admitted & experienced attorneys) Link to episode: https://lnkd.in/eqHJtU_6
