Advisory Services
Our advisory team offer search and consultancy services for fund managers and promoters wishing to establish offices or domicile funds on-shore.
Optimising processes
A major concern for alternative investment managers is where to domicile in order to maximise returns while respecting regulation and transparency requirements. Following recent developments at the European Commission, the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) has been proposed to improve regulation and supervision following the downturn. As a result of the uncertainty caused by the new directive, managers are considering other options; we have noticed that more non EU AIF managers are looking to domicile themselves in the Grand Duchy, away from offshore jurisdictions.
Another recent trend following the crisis is the number of firms who have taken the time to review their business models and reduce their fixed operational costs by in-sourcing through their own substance offices.
