Regulation of Investment Advisers by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, by Robert E. Plaze,

We are pleased to announce that Proskauer has released Regulation of Investment Advisers by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, by Robert E. Plaze, who recently joined Proskauer as a partner.  Bob previously served as Deputy Director of the Division of Investment Management of the SEC.  This publication, which draws on Bob’s nearly 30 years of service with the SEC, is the definitive outline summarizing SEC regulatory issues for Investment Advisers.

Regulation of Investment Advisers is regularly updated and covers extensive ground in key areas for fund managers.  It synthesizes regulation of advisers by the SEC, identifies legal and regulatory precedents, and provides hyperlinks to the underlying authorities.  We hope that you will find it to be a helpful resource.

Please feel free to bookmark or download Regulation of Investment Advisers by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Tim Mungovan is the Chair of Proskauer.  He is also the immediate past chair of the Firm’s Litigation Department and head of the Securities Litigation practice.

His practice is focused on securities, commercial litigation, governance, and bankruptcy-related matters. He has a national reputation for advising sponsors of private investment funds (hedge, private equity, private credit and venture capital) in a wide variety of matters, including litigation, governance, securities, fiduciary obligations, and regulatory enforcement.

Chambers USA describes Tim as “an extraordinary lawyer who is a fierce and very talented litigator. He is extremely knowledgeable, responsive and client-oriented.” Best Lawyers in America lauds Tim’s experience, integrity, work ethic, communications and courtroom skills. Tim has been listed in the “Top 100 Lawyers” in Massachusetts, and Benchmark Litigation has continually recognized Tim as a Litigation Star in Massachusetts.

Over the last six years, Tim has been the lead litigator representing the Financial Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico in the historic restructuring of Puerto Rico’s debts. The scale and complexity of this restructuring has resulted in one of the most active litigation dockets in the U.S. Almost every aspect of the litigation involved matters of first impression in part because the restructuring is governed by the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act, which was enacted for Puerto Rico in 2016.  The track record of success speaks for itself:  in the more than 150 lawsuits filed, Tim and the Proskauer team have prevailed in almost 95% of the cases.

Tim is recognized nationally for his experience in private fund litigation and disputes, having focused on the industry for more than 25 years.  As part of that focus, Tim created and is the lead editor of Proskauer’s blog on Private Equity litigation, The Capital Commitment.
