My diversity networks


Profile:

I am a partner in the Financial Services Group at Dechert LLP.

I focus my practice on investment funds (emphasizing private equity, debt and hedge funds), establishing and restructuring international asset management businesses, corporate and commercial transactions in the asset management sector and general UK financial services regulation.

Before joining Dechert, I worked for Slaughter and May for six years and before that worked in healthcare law. I am committed to diversity in the profession because virtually every single transaction I work on is international in nature and involves people from different backgrounds and countries of origin. Our internal talent should fully reflect this.

Chris White also has a few words to say about Gus- “Gus is a genuinely great guy (as well as a brilliant lawyer) and I was privileged to be supervised by him during my time as a trainee at Dechert. Gus went out of his way to assist me in my development and I am personally delighted to see him become a Professional Ambassador!
