As part of the of Financial Services Agency's Japan Weeks 2025, White & Case, in collaboration with AIMA Japan and Langham Hall, is pleased to invite you to a seminar on the English Model Investment Limited Partnership Agreement (LPA).
In June 2025, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry released the first-ever standardized English Model Investment LPA. It addresses the challenges faced by fund managers using translated Japanese LPAs and aligns with global fund practices, enhancing the attractiveness of the market for foreign investors.
Join us to hear directly from the team that drafted this pivotal agreement. This is a unique opportunity to learn about its key provisions, practical applications, and the significant implications for Japan's investment landscape.
The event will be held on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, followed by a networking reception.
Don't miss this chance to gain valuable insights and connect with industry leaders.
