International Financial Law Review: Ardent Fund Creates New Investment Model

Financial Services partner George M. Silfen was mentioned in the International Financial Law Review's article titled "Arden Fund Creates New Alternative Investment Model," on February 12th. Mr. Silfen advised Arden Alternative Strategies Fund on its launch in November 2012. The mutual fund needed an exemption order granted from the Securities & Exchange Commission, which would allow for hiring of managers and sub-advisors without the shareholders' vote; it won the exemption. Arden launched with $700 million in commitments.
