Figures from the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC)
show that, as at 31 July 2014, a total of 34 Guernsey Alternative
Investment Fund Managers (AIFMs) have utilised Guernsey's
National Private Placement (NPP) regime to market Alternative
Investment Funds (AIFs) into Europe.
The figures, which solely reflect marketing into Europe by
Guernsey AIFMs and not that by European Economic Area (EEA) AIFMs,
reveal that the 34 managers promote investment funds into one or
more EEA Member States. These cover 15 of the 27 jurisdictions with
whom Guernsey signed bilateral cooperation agreements in July 2013
ahead of the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD)
coming into force. The UK remains a key market for Guernsey
managers with 56 AIFs being marketed there.
