Bram de Kuyper

Bram de Kuyper works on matters where an investor or an adviser is facing a refusal to pay out on a private investment. His work is the file itself: what was signed, what was promised, what happened when payment was due and did not arrive. He reviews structures, correspondence, and the mechanics behind a refusal before any step is taken against a counterparty.

How the work looks

A typical file starts with a redemption request or a payment instruction that was met with silence, a delay, or a formal refusal. Bram works through the underlying documents, the subscription terms, the fund or vehicle structure, and the sequence of communications, to establish what the counterparty was actually obliged to do and where that obligation stopped being met.

From there the file moves to what can be established without contacting the counterparty first: whether the structure allows for a claim, what a claim would need to show, and what the realistic sequence of steps looks like. This is where the file is reviewed before anything is sent, whether that is a demand, a claim, or a response to an offer already on the table. Readers weighing a first step against a fund or platform can start from the overview at refusal to perform on private investments.
