The ‘knowledgeable and approachable’ team at K&L Gates Straits Law LLC was strengthened by the arrival of Jason Nelms from Morrison Foerster (Singapore) in January 2024, who has considerable experience in acting for both managers and investors in the formation and operation of private investment funds, including private equity, venture capital and real estate funds. Nelms jointly leads the practice alongside Edward Bennett, who advises development finance institutional investors and sovereign wealth funds on their investments and sponsor stakeholder interests in Asia-based funds.
