Joining from Linklaters in Munich, Jasmin is a qualified tax adviser and focuses on advising semi-institutional investors on fund structuring and investing in alternative investment funds, including private equity, mezzanine, infrastructure, real estate, and private debt. She began her career at Linklaters in 2006, and over the last 13 years has built up a successful fund investor advisory business with a strong track record, having advised on several hundreds of alternative investments.
Commenting, partner Detmar Loff, said:
"Jasmin is a well recognised practitioner and sought after advisor within the German institutional funds community, including amongst pension funds, insurance companies, corporates, fund-of-funds, and family offices, and will be the perfect fit in helping us deepen our funds practice in Germany on the investor and sponsor side in particular."
Piers Warburton, global head of investment funds at Ashurst, added:
"I am delighted that Jasmin has joined our international funds practice. Jasmin is a very experienced funds practitioner who works with some of Germany's leading institutional investors. Her appointment is a further demonstration of our commitment to the development and expansion of Ashurst's international funds practice, and it follows the recent appointment of partners in London, Luxembourg and Hong Kong."
