Harriet advises clients on all aspects of work relating to private funds, predominately focusing on fundraising for which she represents both fund managers and investors. Her particular focus is on growth, buyout and real estate funds.

Harriet’s focus relates to all aspects of private funds. This includes the structuring and fundraising of a variety of different products from traditional blind pool investment vehicles to managed accounts and co-investment vehicles domiciled in a diverse number of jurisdictions, assisting institutional investors review and negotiate fund investments, advising on team incentive arrangements and all wider elements relating to operating a private funds business.

She spent six months in the US on secondment with a leading US law firm. During her secondment, she assisted various institutional investors, including State pension plans, on investments in private funds and spoke at angel investing and VC events on key legal considerations for start-up businesses. Harriet has also spent three months on secondment at both Old Mutual Global Investors and Skandia Investment Group.
