“We’ve worked with Corvus on a range of matters including business as usual legal/operational support and transactional work. As a closed-ended funds specialist, Corvus understood our business from the start and were able to provide tailored, solution focused, risk adjusted advice. When picking external counsel to assist with a recent transaction, we had no hesitation in choosing Corvus.”

“Corvus worked closely with Federated Hermes Private Markets (formerly Hermes GPE) between February 2020 and August 2021. Corvus hit the ground running and quickly developed a deep understanding of our culture, commercial drivers and risk appetite, blending seamlessly with our investment, finance and tax functions. Corvus really felt like an in-house team and their practical, solutions-focussed advice was highly valued by the business.”

Karen Sands
COO Federated Hermes Private Markets

“Corvus have provided advice to us in connection with our cross-border client distribution exercises for a number of years. While this is a complex area with some significant grey space, Corvus aren’t afraid to take a view on difficult issues and suggest practical, operational outputs.”
