Regulatory, compliance & fund registration
Challenges
The investment fund industry is facing a highly complex regulatory environment.
Within the cross-border distribution world, mutual funds have to cope with a vast number of existing laws, rules and regulations at the level of the European Union, their home domicile as well as the targeted countries. In addition, they have to follow-closely the developments in order to be fully prepared for the transition from UCITS III to UCITS IV.
At a broader scale, players need to keep up-to-date with the fast moving developments in areas like AIFMD, UCITS Depositary Function, MiFID, Transparency Directive, AML etc.
Deloitte provides support to master the high complexity of requirements in a multi-jurisdictional environment.
