Akin Gump investment management partner Adam Hilkemann has been featured in the Corporate Counsel Business Journal article “In an Uncertain Market, Opportunities (and Risks) Abound.”
Hilkemann discusses various trends in investment management and how investors and fund managers are dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. Focusing on the real estate industry, where there is “some concern in this space generally,” he predicts there will be “continued pressure for managers to support valuations where they’re holding investments at cost, both from an investor and regulatory perspective, particularly if those valuations impact their fees or performance.”
Hilkemann also talks about the role that hybrid funds and other customized vehicles are playing in risk-management strategies as well as how he is advising fund managers on their near- and long-term risk management and compliance strategies. Finally, as the pandemic continues, he addresses some of the specific opportunities that investors and asset managers should be considering.
