Juniper Square Launches New Council for Private Markets Regulation
San Francisco, CA — In a significant stride towards enhancing transparency and compliance in private markets, Juniper Square, a leading provider of innovative connected fund solutions, has announced the formation of the Private Markets Regulatory Council. This initiative addresses the complex and rapidly changing policy environment that private market General Partners (GPs) face today.
With investor interests evolving and the landscape of private investments becoming more intricate, the council aims to foster informed discussions and provide practical insights regarding regulatory challenges. The council comprises a knowledgeable group of experts from various sectors within the industry, who will regularly convene to assess current developments and their implications for GPs.
Among the council members are notable professionals:
- - Carlo di Florio, President of ACA Group
- - Olga Kamensky, Partner at Kirkland & Ellis LLP
- - Michael McVickar, General Counsel of Origin Investments
- - Dan Rothenberg, Head of Legal at Juniper Square
Alex Robinson, CEO and Co-Founder of Juniper Square, emphasized the necessity of the council in aiding GPs as they navigate increasing operational demands from a diverse pool of investors, including non-institutional ones. “The Private Markets Regulatory Council will serve as a strategic think tank, leveraging the deep domain expertise of its members. Our goal is to empower GPs with actionable insights and knowledge that will help them manage the complexities they face,” stated Robinson.
The council's initial discussion of 2025 tackled pressing topics such as the ripple effects of tariffs, compliance issues as GPs contemplate integrating artificial intelligence within their operations, and the criticality of maintaining robust compliance programs irrespective of the regulatory stance. The expanding role of the council signifies Juniper Square’s commitment to not only adapting to a shifting environment but actively guiding its partners through successful navigation of these waters.
The first edition of insights and analysis from the council is now available, featuring key takeaways on each discussed topic. This edition can be accessed via Juniper Square's website and YouTube channel, where future discussions will also be published.
