Ziele

As the major location for investment funds in Europe, Luxembourg offers a broad choice of possible vehicles that meet most of the promoters' constraints, in terms of investment strategy, marketing and level of regulation or supervision. Understanding the characteristics of each of them allows you to choose the most appropriate one for your particular project.

Tax considerations are also key and asset managers shall ensure that the fund structure is optimum from a tax perspective.

  • know the Luxembourg toolbox for AIFs;
