LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

HOWARD LAW provides specialist Jersey legal advice and document drafting in connection with Jersey limited partnerships:

• Jersey limited partnerships are often set up as private funds or regulated public funds investing into private equity style investments
• Jersey limited partnerships can also be used as joint venture vehicles for partners wishing to work together on a particular investment or business opportunity
• These partnerships can also be used as part of asset holding and allocation arrangements by family offices
• To cater for Islamic investors these partnerships can be structured so that they are Shariah compliant and operate on the basis of mudarabah or quirad
• Jersey limited partnerships are tax transparent for both income and capital account transactions
• Commercially sensitive or valuable information relating to the partnership’s activities is protected by virtue of the fact that neither the limited partnership agreement nor the identity of limited partners in a Jersey limited partnership are matters of public record in Jersey.
