Objectifs

AIF funds vehicles are becoming increasingly popular in the Luxembourg marketplace.

Although they are already represented in Luxembourg with numerous vehicles in the form of UCI or non regulated vehicles, the recent trends have demonstrated to local administrators and depositaries that alternative investments are an asset class with totally different features and sources of risk requiring specific skills and operational processes.

In this context, PwC's Academy is pleased to offer this dedicated training designed to provide Luxembourg professionals with a comprehensive overview of the latest industry trends, as well as a thorough analysis of sector-specific issues and best practices.

By the end of this training, the participants will be able to:

  • identify the nature and purpose of the AIF Industry
  • define and describe the different structures available in Luxembourg and related features

Contenu
