Private Equity and Venture Capital investment vehicles are becoming increasingly popular in the Luxembourg marketplace.
Although this asset class was already represented in Luxembourg with several vehicles in the form of UCI or non regulated vehicles, the recent trends have highlighted to local administrators and custodians that Private Equity and Venture Capital are an asset class with totally different features and sources of risk requiring specific skills and specific operational processes.
In this context, PwC's Academy is pleased to offer this dedicated training workshop designed to provide Luxembourg professionals with a comprehensive overview of the latest industry trends, as well as a thorough analysis of sector-specific issues and best practices.
