| This detailed Guide answers all the basic questions start-up managers and those in expansion mode need to ask when considering the merits of different jurisdictions in which to set up, and perhaps manage, their fund. Dechert LLP together with local practitioners, in each jurisdiction, have collated the key information on which an asset manager’s decision should be founded when making a comparative judgement, covering issues such as costs, timing, structures available and any anomalies that should be considered. The third edition has been completely revised and updated to reflect all the changes that have taken place since the second edition in November 2007.
