Maddocks has made two senior appointments to the Financial Services team – special counsel Mick Garner and consultant Keith Nathan. Both lawyers have significant experience in superannuation, investment and funds management having held senior positions with leading law firms.
Mick Garner specialises in funds management and superannuation, focusing on off-market acquisitions, investment mandates, trustee corporate governance, regulatory and dispute resolution issues. He has advised a number of Australia’s prominent fund managers and superannuation funds in relation to off-market acquisitions of interests in, and divestments from, collective investment and other private equity structures, and on the regulation, formation and restructure of managed funds and superannuation funds. Prior to joining Maddocks, Mick was a special counsel at Allens Arthur Robinson, and prior to that a partner in one of the largest law firms in South Africa.
Keith Nathan has over 25 years experience in the area of funds management, with a particular focus on investment for superannuation and other large wholesale funds. His experience spans working for industry superannuation funds, government statutory funds and regulated corporate funds. He regularly advises on appointing master custodians and investment managers and undertaking legal due diligences for alternative investments including private equity, hedge funds and REIT’s. He has acted for trustees of large superannuation and other funds in respect of investments largely in the wholesale market, and has also acted for many years for public sector borrowers, and merchant and overseas banks, providing advice on banking and securities law. Prior to joining Maddocks, Keith was a partner at DLA Phillips Fox and a consultant at DLA Piper.
Jonathan Ambler, Services Sector Leader said, “These appointments have further bolstered Maddocks’ financial services credentials in the provision of financial services advice including investment, regulatory and transaction advice in the areas of superannuation, investment, private equity and funds management.”
Maddocks was ranked in the 2011/12 Best Lawyers directory in the area of Superannuation and named Banking & Finance Law Firm of the year at the 2011 Finance Monthly Law Awards.
