Good morning,
Today marks a significant milestone in our history, as we announce the acquisition of AUM Law, a highly respected Canadian law firm serving the asset management sector. The transaction combines BLG's deep expertise and long-standing counsel in the investment management industry with AUM Law's fixed-fee regulatory compliance offerings, providing clients with an efficient, innovative approach to help them manage a wide array of legal and regulatory compliance obligations.
AUM's services are a value-added complement to the services we provide now as part of our Investment Management Group. Established in 2009, AUM Law has developed a systematic, predictable approach to compliance, with fixed-fee plans and services. In time, I expect we will be able to expand AUM's Ontario-focused compliance services to clients across Canada as part of our BLG Beyond portfolio of alternative legal services.
AUM and BLG share a common vision to reshape legal services with an eye on cost-efficiency, technology enhanced predictability, unassailable legal counsel and an unwavering commitment to client satisfaction.
If you have questions about our acquisition and what it means to you, please reach out to me or Prema Thiele, National Group Head, Corporate & Capital Markets.
Thanks,
National Managing Partner and CEO
Borden Ladner Gervais LLP
