Transatlantic alignment

In this episode of Top of the Ops, The Drawdown team debates whether the operations of US private funds are beginning to look more European due to regulatory and investor pressures. Following on from our recent cover story, Bridging the Atlantic, we investigate whether the global nature of private markets means the gap between the US and Europe in terms of operational complexity has narrowed, despite the SEC’s proposed Private Fund Adviser Rules being quashed in court. To help us analyse the difference between US and European operations, we speak to Amy Knapp, partner and COO at Corsair Capital, a US-based firm that also has a team in London.
