Private Equity General Counsel Network
Defining an evolving role in a dynamic industry
Over the last decade, many private equity firms expanded internationally and diversified into multiple asset classes. Firms also became increasingly subject to regulatory scrutiny in key jurisdictions. In this dynamic environment, private equity general counsel must address an endless stream of immediate priorities while also shaping their longer-term role.
The Private Equity General Counsel Network (PEGCN) consists of a select group of general counsel from leading private equity firms and senior private equity partners from Kirkland & Ellis LLP, Ropes & Gray LLP, and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP. The network’s goal is to broaden the perspectives and enhance the effectiveness of general counsel at a time when the leadership role and influence of these senior executives is expanding.
The PEGCN provides a platform for:
- Fostering a common understanding of private equity industry dynamics
- Discussing key legal and organizational issues confronting private equity firms
- Considering actionable and effective solutions to these challenges
The PEGCN does not publish a public summary of network meeting discussions.
