We have been following Fund Finance Friday’s journey through different U.S. jurisdictions and the interesting range of approaches taken by various states to sovereign immunity. With the Cayman Islands being the largest offshore fund domicile for U.S. fund managers, we thought it was worth extending the series offshore.
Today we return with our seventh installment in the FFF Sovereign Immunity Series, in which we break down sovereign immunity in New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota and Ohio.
Today’s article marks the halfway point in our alphabetical 50-state survey of sovereign immunity, as this installment covers Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire and New Jersey.
