Profits per equity partner climbed by 30.8% in U.S. dollars to reach $1.97 million, a consequence of a focus on more efficient business practices, pandemic-related spending cuts and an adjustment to the firm’s compensation system that saw roughly 125 partners move from the firm’s equity to nonequity tier.
