Mishcon de Reya
Law firm Mishcon de Reya has appointed Steven Haywood, a partner specialising in investment funds. He joined the team's London office this month.

Haywood has experience in advising on a spectrum of alternative asset managers on the structuring and formation of private investment funds across a range of different strategies – from first-time venture capital managers to global multi-strategy managers, the firm said in a statement.

His experience covers venture capital, private equity and private equity secondaries funds, direct lending and credit funds, as well as infrastructure, real estate, healthcare and impact finance funds. Haywood advises institutional investors on private fund investments, including the sale of portfolios of fund interests, secondary market deals, and co-investments. He has also gained practical industry experience from his time working within the alternatives asset management division of a leading global investment bank.

“Steven brings not only specific investment funds expertise but also a well-established reputation within the industry, significantly bolstering our capabilities in this area. We are looking forward to him making a strong impact in the team and to building his practice across our London, Cambridge, and Oxford offices,” Charlotte Wilson, partner in the corporate department and the head of the firm's financial services regulatory team, said.
