A recent panel hosted by Willkie on the merits of interval funds for private fund managers has been covered in depth in a two-article series in Private Equity Law Report.

The panel titled “How Interval Funds Can Help Private Fund Managers Expand Their Fundraising Options” included Elliot Gluck and Mark Proctor, partners in Willkie’s Asset Management Department. They provided insight into the benefits of interval fund structures and the key considerations for private fund managers when bringing an interval fund to market.

This first Private Equity Law Report article on the panel discussion addresses the rising popularity of interval funds and details the notable features of the vehicles relative to tender offer funds, as well as the regulatory requirements fund managers must navigate.

The second article highlights the fundraising and logistical benefits of interval funds as well as the operational challenges involved compared to traditional private funds.
