No. We handle the entire formation process end-to-end — including LPA drafting, entity incorporation, and all legal documentation. No outside counsel is required. If you prefer to use bespoke legal work from your own law firm, we can coordinate closely with your counsel throughout the process.
Absolutely. Jurisdiction selection depends on your investment strategy, target LP base, regulatory preferences, cost sensitivity, and timeline. We walk you through the trade-offs across all nine jurisdictions we support.
Multi-vehicle structures are common, especially for funds with international LP bases. We coordinate the formation of all vehicles and integrate them operationally: shared onboarding, consolidated reporting, and unified accounting.
It depends on the jurisdiction and complexity. A straightforward US Delaware fund can be operational in 2–4 weeks. A Luxembourg SCSp with full AIFM registration takes 6–8 weeks. We give you a realistic timeline in our initial scoping conversation.
Fund formation is free for customers who use any of our other services. This includes jurisdiction advisory, entity incorporation, legal documentation, and operational setup, at no cost until your fund reaches first close.
In many jurisdictions, you can begin marketing and collecting soft commitments before the entity is fully formed. We advise on what is permitted in your jurisdiction and help you manage the pre-marketing process compliantly.
Setup is free. We don’t charge any fees until first close. Tell us about your strategy and we’ll give you a clear timeline and formation plan.
