The McGuireWoods Emerging Manager Launchpad: Your Path to Fund Formation Success
Welcome to The McGuireWoods Emerging Manager Launchpad – your comprehensive resource for investment managers embarking on the journey to launch their first, second or third commingled private investment fund and secure investments from institutional partners.
In the intricate world of private equity, raising and investing capital is just the beginning. Successful fund management involves myriad responsibilities, from investor reporting, accounting, tax management, staffing, staff equity and non-equity related compensation and benefits, regulatory compliance, cash management, insurance, and much more.
Our Emerging Manager Launchpad is meticulously designed to help emerging managers better understand these activities and develop a plan to address both the managers’ core functions and these additional activities. Institutional investors’ diligence processes often involve questions regarding fund managers’ plans to address these activities, and presenting an effective and thought-out plan to address them can ease an otherwise time-consuming and fraught fundraising process.
