That publication, which is also known as the “Walker Report,” makes specific recommendations for improving the level of public disclosure by private equity firms operating in both the United States and the United Kingdom.
Lord Clive Hollick served as a member of the working group that issued the Walker Report and we are committed to its success. Because we believe in the importance of enhancing disclosure and transparency within the private equity industry, we have voluntarily undertaken to conform to the Walker Report guidelines and to promote further conformity by our UK relations.
We will soon have available on this website a link that will allow you to download the Walker Report in its entirety.
