Asset Management
About
Our Banking & Finance group has both the commercial and legal expertise necessary to help clients in the area of asset management. The asset management practice is primarily divided into two areas. The first area involves the establishment of offshore investment funds and the offer and sale of interests in these funds in the Japanese market by public offering and private placement. The second area involves providing regulatory advice and assistance to clients conducting or wishing to conduct investment management or advisory businesses in Japan.
