Practice Profile: Janicelynn Asamoto Park is a partner in the Tax Department at Proskauer Rose and an integral part of the Proskauer's private investment funds team. Park counsels investment managers on the tax and economic considerations associated with fund formation tax structuring across asset classes. In addition to advising as to fund structure and other matters relating to their fundraises, fund sponsor clients often turn to her for ad hoc advice relating to their GP-level structuring, fund investments, and other operational matters. She also advises private equity and strategic clients on buy- and sell-side private M&A transactions.

This dual hat role has uniquely positioned her to provide thoughtful, comprehensive and cross-disciplinary advice on GP-led secondary transactions (including continuation fund transactions, which typically include both a fund formation and transactional tax component).
