This webinar was the first of a two-part webinar series dealing with shifting investment relationships. Fundamental changes in our markets are creating organizational challenges and alignment of interest issues. Dynamics are changing between GPs and LPs, local JV partners and our funds, and LPs and other LPs. Business plans will require adjustment, organizations will change, legal structures and incentive models will be tested. The concepts of alignment of interest and fiduciary duty will be increasing concerns.
