Guidance You Deserve

“Private equity success is not just about capital—it’s about control, structure, and legally protected growth.”

Launching a private equity fund without proper legal structuring is reckless. Our Private Equity lawyers in Bangladesh advise fund sponsors and investment managers on building compliant, tax-efficient, and investor-ready fund structures.

 

We assist with:

  • Fund formation strategy (onshore/offshore)

  • Regulatory compliance under Bangladesh investment laws

  • Limited partnership agreements and fund documents

  • Investor rights, fee structures, and carried interest

  • Cross-border fund structuring via Singapore, DIFC, or other jurisdictions

 

Our law firm ensures that fund documents clearly define control mechanisms, risk allocation, governance standards, and exit rights, reducing future disputes and investor friction.

Private Equity Fund Formation & Structuring

For foreign sponsors entering Bangladesh, we align fund structures with BIDA, Bangladesh Bank, tax authorities, and sector-specific regulators, ensuring full compliance without slowing down capital deployment.

 

This service is ideal for:

  • First-time fund managers

  • Regional PE funds entering Bangladesh

  • Family offices formalizing investment vehicles

 

As a Private Equity law firm, we don’t use templates. We design structures that survive regulatory scrutiny and investor due diligence.

This is where most deals fail—or bleed value. Our Private Equity lawyers manage every legal aspect of the investment process, ensuring speed without sacrificing protection. We advise on:

 

  • Share purchase agreements (SPA)

  • Share subscription agreements (SSA)

  • Convertible instruments and preference shares

  • Shareholders’ agreements

  • Conditions precedent and closing mechanics

 

Our law firm conducts deep legal due diligence, identifying regulatory gaps, ownership risks, licensing issues, tax exposure, and hidden liabilities before you wire capital.

  • Board control and veto rights

  • Anti-dilution protections
