Private Fund Dispute Resolution

Litigation is often costly and can sometimes be damaging to a firm’s reputation. It is therefore critical that private fund managers across alternative financial spaces have a full understanding of where the potential dangers lie for their business - which could lead to fall outs with investors, portfolio companies and internally.

Private Fund Dispute Resolution, published in November 2014 by Private Equity International, is designed to provide invaluable advice for recognising, avoiding and ultimately winning disputes and reducing the regulatory risks that arise throughout the lifecycle of a fund and serves as an essential companion for those seeking a deeper understanding of such issues.

Dechert partner Timothy Lindsay authored a chapter within the publication entitled International Arbitration of Private Equity Disputes. The chapter provides a clear and thorough assessment of matters to be taken into account when deciding on whether to use international arbitration for resolving disputes in the private equity sector, particularly in a cross-border context.
