    Well-Caffeinated: Not Just a Speed Bump — Identifying and Managing Conflicts of Interest in Private Funds

    In this episode of Well-Caffeinated, host Tim Clark is joined by David Nicolardi, a Private Funds and Secondaries partner in Freshfields' Washington, DC office, to examine one of the first principles of fund management: identifying and managing conflicts of interest. The conversation explores how regulators think about conflicts and investment adviser fiduciary duties, drawing on David's experience in the SEC's Division of Investment Management. Tim and David unpack why treating conflicts as mere “speed bumps” to rush past is a dangerous mindset, and why thoughtful identification and management are fundamental to an adviser's fiduciary duty. Tim and David also cover the two pillars of managing conflicts – disclosure and mitigation – and the standard of “full and fair” disclosure, informed consent and when formal approval from investors or an LP advisory committee is required.

    Well-Caffeinated: What the Retail Moment Means for Private Capital

    In this episode of Well-Caffeinated, host Tim Clark is joined by four Freshfields colleagues to examine one of the most significant trends impacting Private Capital today: the increasing focus on “retail” sources of capital for Private Capital investment strategies. Melissa Hodgman, David Nicolardi, Andrew Gladstein and Jeremy Barr unpack what it means for a Private Capital managers to add a retail component to its investor pool.   The conversation covers the differences between the types of private funds traditionally managed by Private Capital managers and so-called retail funds, such as interval funds, tender offer funds and business development companies (BDCs); the different regulatory regimes applicable to retail funds as compared to traditional closed-end Private Capital products; and the risks associated with managing retail investors in open-ended funds versus institutional investors in closed end products. The panel addresses the areas of sharpest regulatory focus — valuation, liquidity, conflicts of interest, fees and distributions — before closing with practical guidance on how Private Capital managers should think about structuring their compliance programs and managing regulatory, litigation and reputational risks throughout the life cycle of a retail vehicle.

    Essential Antitrust #51: Inside the new EU Merger Guidelines with Daniele Calisti: policy, economics and practice

    Twelve months ago, Daniele Calisti, Head of Unit for Merger Policy and Case Support at the European Commission, joined us to discuss the launch of the Commission's public consultation on the revision of the EU Merger Guidelines. Now, with a draft text on the table, host Jenn Mellott welcomes him back — alongside economist David Foster of Frontier Economics and Brussels partner Thomas Janssens — to get the insider’s perspective on the most significant rewrite of EU merger control in over twenty years. The conversation goes beyond the published text to explore the Commission's own thinking on the revamped efficiencies and "theory of benefit" framework, the new dynamic theories of harm, the differentiated evidential standard, resilience as a parameter of competition, and the Innovation Shield for acquisitions of small innovative companies. Whether you're a friend of the podcast or a new listener, you'll find everything you need in this episode to navigate the reform with confidence. With the consultation closing on 26 June and the Commission already applying the new principles informally, this episode delivers the insight your deal team needs — directly from the source.
