The issues and challenges confronting multinational

alternative asset managers

Hedge funds and private equity funds have grown in size and expanded

their investment horizons over the last decade, investing in multiple

developed and developing markets, each raising its own business and

regulatory issues. At the same time, regulatory changes in the US, EU and

elsewhere have been daunting. This panel will focus on how the general

counsels of such organisations deal with these business and regulatory

issues.
