With just five months until the deadline for implementation of the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive ("AIFMD") on 22 July 2013, we would like to remind you of our dedicated AIFMD webpage. Matheson's Asset Management and Investment Funds group has produced a series of fact sheets on the key issues arising from the AIFMD which may be downloaded from the AIFMD Factsheets webpage. 

The issues examined include the rules applicable to third country managers and funds, the marketing passport, private placement, delegation, depositary requirements and valuation. If you would like to receive hard copies of these papers, please get in touch with the contacts listed in this email or your usual Asset Management and Investment Funds contact.
