Private Fund Update - January 13, 2014

NOTE: Webinar on Volcker Rule January 15: This Wednesday, January 15 (please note the change of date), I will be participating in a webinar on the Volcker Rule titled "The Volcker Rule and its Impact on Private Equity." The webinar will include an overview of the final rule and its compliance requirements, the impact of the rule on private equity funds and other "covered funds" and exclusions to the rule, including SBICs and most BDCs. Please feel free to register here.

Congress gets back to work in earnest this week. Of particular note, on Tuesday, the full House of Representatives is expected to vote on H.R. 2274, which would create a simplified reporting regime for merger & acquisition brokers.
