Legal Counsel (on secondment from Clifford Chance)

Having re-joined Apis’ legal team on a three-month secondment from Clifford Chance, Arez’s role sees him work across a mixture of transactional, funds-related, and regulatory matters.

Prior to joining Apis, Arez was in the Private Funds team at Clifford Chance, where he focused on the establishment and offering of private funds, including advising managers on the structuring, marketing and ongoing management of such funds. His experience also includes advising prospective investors on investments in private funds.

Arez lives in London, and enjoys playing sports, travelling, and exploring the city’s many parks with his dog – Whiskey!
