The Member States having recently implemented the so-called UCITS IV Directive1, on July 3, 2012 the European Commission has already published a "Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council amending the UCITS IV Directive" (the "UCITS V Proposal Directive").

This proposal takes into account the latest market developments and the experiences of market participants and supervisors gathered so far, in particular to address discrepancies between national provisions in respect of depositaries' duties and liability, remuneration policy and sanctions.

One may also summarize the UCITS V Proposal Directive while stating that the AIFM Directive2 – being focused on professional investors - has been adapted to mirror the retail profile of UCITS investors.
