Make sure your organization complies with the AIFMD on time
The AIFM Directive has come into force in 2014. The implementation of this directive substantially increases the demands and obligations of fund managers. Besides that, the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM) handles a much more strict interpretation of regulation than they did in the past.
The old license has been automatically converted to an AIFMD license for many fund managers. These managers haven’t completely realized what the consequences are of this new regulation. In recent months, the AFM has determined that many of these organizations aren’t compliant. Many fund managers have a lot of work to do in order to avoid supervisory actions. Now that the AFM has announced that it’s going to review these fund managers in 2018, the risk of supervisory actions is becoming a reality.
