How we can help
We advise on carried interest schemes at fund level, as well as on performance related arrangements (stock appreciation rights or sweet equity share plans) at portfolio company level. Our extensive involvement in all types of MIPs allows us to assist as well in defining commercial terms of MIPs during the due diligence phase with the target portfolio company.
With an integrated approach that sets us apart in the market, we offer our clients a unique combination of legal, tax and regulatory advice.
