Fasken advises W Investments Group Inc. in the launch of W Investments Group L.P., a private equity fund with $120 million in commitments.

The fund’s objective is to create a diversified platform that reflects aggressive, yet healthy, wealth management with a long-term investment horizon. The platform makes investments in private companies, real estate or infrastructure projects, fixed income products and alternative investments. Unlike more traditional groups, W Investments Group LP does not require control when taking a position in a company or a project, but rather to be surrounded by the right partners with whom there is a perfect alignment of interests. The fund’s management team works closely with a network of successful entrepreneurs. This collaboration enables W Investments Group LP to benefit from their expertise, their opportunities and their networks, thereby improving portfolio performance while reducing risk. A Fasken team led by Anabel Quessy, assisted by Jonathan Halwagi and Jean-Philippe Joyal, advised W Investments Group during this case.
