Talked About

The structural and legal realities of forming, launching, and operating a private markets fund in Europe — from AIFMD updates and AI governance to carried interest tax reform and jurisdictional considerations.
Private Credit & Secondaries
With geopolitical risk reshaping the private credit opportunity and LP demand for liquidity at record pace, two panels explored direct lending, continuation funds, NAV financing, and the rise of GP-led secondaries.
