by Krystal Scanlon 18 July 2022

The Drawdown (TDD): You joined Travers Smith as a trainee in 1998 and became partner in the private funds team in 2008. What are the key changes you’ve noticed in PE?

Sam Kay (SK): When I started out, fund structuring tax and regulation was far more straightforward. In the late 90s/early 2000s, there wasn’t much to think about regarding regulatory requirements.
