M&A Finance
K&L Gates
Full Credential Description
Churchill Asset Management faced the challenge of providing liquidity to its investors without resorting to a traditional secondary sale. To address this niche issue, K&L Gates LLP advised Churchill on a structured liquidity transaction valued at $425 million. This innovative solution allowed Churchill to deliver material liquidity on a curated of buyout fund interests, which was essential for maintaining investor confidence and supporting the firm's growth strategies. The transaction was financed by Dawson Partners, a global alternative asset manager known for its focus on providing structured solutions in the private markets. This strategic move not only facilitated immediate liquidity for Churchill's investors but also secured unfunded capital that would bolster the growth of Churchill’s middle-market GP-led secondaries and equity co-investment platforms. As a result of this tailored solution, Churchill Asset Management was able to enhance its operational flexibility and continue its trajectory of growth in the competitive private equity landscape. The successful closing of this transaction exemplifies how innovative financial structuring can meet specific client needs while supporting broader business objectives.
