Ropes & Gray has advised private equity firm TSG Consumer Partners on its eighth fund, TSG8, which held a final closing on 4 February with USD4 billion of limited partner capital commitments. As with its prior fund, TSG8 was substantially oversubscribed.
The fund will primarily focus on high-growth consumer companies through equity investments between USD200 million and USD800 million.
The Ropes & Gray team was led by asset management partner Debra Lussier and private equity transactions partner Paul Van Houten, and included tax partner James Brown, asset management associates Lindsay Rutishauser, Zakk Wedemeyer, Robert Rossi and Kenneth Kaufman, tax associates Nathan Anderson, Kathryn Seevers and Alexa Voskerichian, corporate associates Marilyn Li, Anthony Lombardi and Jack Jessee, Jr., and paralegal Carolyn Ye.
As part of our asset management group, Ropes & Gray has one of the largest and most sophisticated private funds specialty practices, advising both fund sponsors and investors globally. The size, scope and integration of the sponsor and investor practices – we form and review many hundreds of funds each year – give us unequalled insight into market terms and developments around the world.
