The Best Offshore Solutions

Tom Carey and Ben Morgan of Carey Olsen tell HFMWeek how Guernsey has maintained its solid reputation following the implementation of AIFMD.

The real impact of the EU Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) is beginning to be felt globally. Some jurisdictions (and fund managers) are positioned more favourably than others to ensure they are ready to make the most of the opportunities available while avoiding the pitfalls that usually accompany more regulation. Carey Olsen investment fund partners in Guernsey, Tom Carey and Ben Morgan, proffer the view that Guernsey is ideally placed, and has sensibly addressed the AIFMD, to be the jurisdiction of choice for European funds.
