Private Equity and Venture Capital

Fundless Sponsors

While the term "fundless sponsor" is relatively new, for more than 20 years Schiff Hardin attorneys have represented investors without committed capital in their middle market buyout and investment activities.

This representation spans sponsors who seek private equity funds or other institutional investors to complete a transaction, as well as sponsors who complete a transaction with their own funds. In addition, we represent buyout funds that team with fundless sponsors on transactions first identified by those sponsors.
