Investment funds and regulatory specialist Matt McManus has been promoted to partner in Ogier’s funds team in Jersey.
Named a rising star by Legal 500 UK 2024, Matt has more than 15 years’ experience in the Jersey funds industry. He advises a range of sponsors and service providers across all aspects of a fund’s lifecycle, as well as on co-investment, joint venture and carry structures.
He advises on regulatory and corporate matters and is part of Ogier’s multi-disciplinary Technology and Web3 and Private Equity sector groups. He also has a keen interest in ESG matters and Islamic finance.
Matt joined Ogier in late 2021 and has progressed through the firm’s partner development programme. According to client feedback, Matt is: “Exceptional in all aspects, from client interaction and commerciality, right through to billing. He sees the bigger picture when it comes to clients and looks to develop a long-term relationship rather than a one-off service.”
Investment Funds partner Niamh Lalor said: “Matt is an outstanding lawyer who combines technical knowledge with a pragmatic and practical approach, achieving the best outcomes for clients. Ogier is committed to recognising and rewarding talent and Matt’s promotion to partner is very well deserved, and shows the bench strength of our funds team in Jersey.”
