  • Value in Private Equity: Where Social Meets Shareholder 3 OPPORTUNITIES ALIGNED
    VALUE IN PRIVATE EQUITY WHERE SOCIAL MEETS SHAREHOLDER By Mark Hepworth Big Issue Invest March 2014 2 MOVING TOWARDS AN ERA OF OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL... The imbalance of opportunity in society is as striking today as it ever was. In my opinion though, this lack of opportunity is caused, not so much by opportunity not being there, but because of the lack of educational qualifications, or other criteria, such as direction and focus being absent in poorer sections of society. Clearly someone who attended private school, comes from a wealthy and educated family, and who completed their education to degree level is more likely to achieve than someone who was brought up as part of a one parent family, located in an inner city borough, didn’t attend much school and left at the earliest opportunity without any exam passes. Opportunity is always there for those naturally gifted, or lucky enough to spot it, or perhaps those educated enough to recognise it. I recently had lunch with a leading politician and mentioned my belief that we simply must find a way of linking the powerful stallions of free enterprise to the carriage of humanity that follows behind. It is essential in a modern democratic society that we work toward inclusion for all. Forget making the rich poorer, let’s make the poor richer. To most, the goal of private equity investment is typically seen as working in direct conflict to this goal of social inclusion. The media tends to distort and exaggerate the sector like a pantomime villain - asset stripping, job losses, financial engineering...the list goes on.

  • Response to Government Consultation on Moving Land Registry
    City of London Law Society Land Law Committee response to consultation on moving Land Registry operations into the private sector Introduction The City of London Law Society (“CLLS”) represents approximately 17,000 City lawyers through individual and corporate membership including some of the largest international law firms in the world. These law firms advise a variety of clients from multinational companies and financial institutions to Government departments, often in relation to complex, multi-jurisdictional legal issues. The CLLS responds to a variety of consultations on issues of importance to its members through its 19 specialist committees. This response in respect of the Department for Business Innovation and Skills Consultation on moving Land Registry operations into the private sector has been prepared by the CLLS Land Law Committee. This response is given by those members of the Land Law Committee listed at the end of this response. The following individuals/firms have asked to be excluded from this response - Daniel McKimm/Allen & Overy LLP, Jamie Chapman/Ashurst LLP, Ian Waring/Berwin Leighton Paisner LLP, Michael Edwards/Clifford Chance LLP, Bruce Dear/Eversheds LLP, Jayne Elkins/Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP, Victoria Hills/Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP, James Barnes/Herbert Smith Freehills LLP, Martin Elliott/Linklaters LLP, Nick Jones/Simmons & Simmons LLP, John Nevin/Slaughter & May and Alison Hardy/Squire Patton Boggs (UK) LLP.‎ General comments For‎the‎purposes‎of‎our‎comments,‎we‎assume‎that‎a‎private‎company‎(known‎as‎“NewCo”‎in‎the‎ consultation) will take over the Land Registry. We make that assumption because of the tenor of the commentary in the consultation that privatisation with a long term contract between government and a private operator and risk transferred to the latter is the preferred model.
