Akin Welcomes Fund Finance Partner Corinne Musa in New York

Akin is pleased to announce that Corinne Musa has joined the firm as a corporate & finance partner in its New York office, where she will focus on fund finance transactions. Musa most recently practiced at Cooley LLP.

Corinne’s practice is focused on the representation of borrowers and alternative lenders in fund finance transactions. She concentrates on subscription credit facilities, NAV and hybrid credit facilities, and management fee and GP lines of credit for private credit, private equity and other funds.

“Fund finance is a key component in our full-service offering to our investment fund clients, and a skillset in high demand,” said Akin chairperson Kim Koopersmith. “Corinne is an excellent addition to our platform, bringing high-level fund finance knowledge and experience to our investment fund and finance clients.”

Corporate & finance practice co-head Zachary Wittenberg added, “Corinne brings valuable experience and capability with respect to some of the largest and most complex fund financing transactions in the industry, and she will be a terrific addition to our corporate and investment management groups.”

“I am excited to work with Akin’s impressive mix of investment fund and finance clients on cutting-edge financing structures. This is an ideal platform to take my practice to the next level,” said Corinne.

Prior to Cooley, Musa was a part of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton and Garrison LLP; and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz.
