Practice Experience
Monica K. Arora has extensive experience advising financial institutions, investment banks and private equity firms as sponsors of, and investors in, private investment funds spanning numerous industries–in the United States, as well as in Latin America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Additionally, she has significant experience advising on general partner arrangements, carry plans and secondary transactions involving the acquisitions and dispositions of interests in private investment funds.

As a large part of White & Case's Capital Markets Practice, the Investment Funds Group counsels sponsors, investment managers, placement agents and other financial intermediaries globally concerning the organization and structuring of investment fund vehicles. After funds are formed, White & Case provides advice in connection with these funds' investment activities, with a particular focus on M&A and distressed equity and debt investments. The Investment Funds Group also advises a discrete number of sovereign wealth funds, foundations, pension funds and other institutional investors in connection with their alternative asset investment programs.

Ms. Arora joined White & Case in February 2009, prior to which she practiced in the investment funds practice of another leading law firm concentrating in the field of private equity fund formation.
