Funds experts will examine Guernsey's approach to the EU's Alternative
Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) at an event in
London this November.
With uncertainty still surrounding aspects of the Directive,
panellists from the UK and Guernsey will look at what the
Island's dual regime means in practice for advisers and
clients, particularly in relation to the most appropriate route to
market.
The event, 'AIFMD: Practical aspects of
implementation', is being held on the afternoon of Tuesday
5 November at the recently refurbished Rosewood London.
Fiona Le Poidevin, Chief Executive of Guernsey Finance, the
promotional agency for the Island's finance industry
internationally, said: "AIFMD has dominated a large proportion
of the coverage relating to the European funds industry over the
past couple of years but, despite this attention and focus, there
are still many questions about certain aspects of the Directive
that remain unanswered.
