ALFI: Luxembourg Stock Exchange and ALFI publish the second edition of the Compendium of investment fund laws and regulations


The Luxembourg Stock Exchange in cooperation with the Association of the Luxembourg Fund Industry has announced the publication of the second edition of the compendium of Luxembourg laws and regulations on investment funds.

The compendium, which is available in English, French and German, is made up of two separate publications in each language. The first publication covers undertakings for collective investment in transferable securities (UCITS) established under Luxembourg law and contains the amended Law of 17 December 2010 on undertakings for collective investment as well as the main regulatory texts relating thereto.

The second publication covers alternative investment funds (AIFs) established under Luxembourg law and other investment vehicles which are neither UCITS nor AIFs.

Denise Voss, Chairman of ALFI, comments: “The compendium has proved an invaluable tool for legal experts and practitioners dealing with Luxembourg collective investment vehicles. An update of the first edition was necessary because of two major regulatory developments in 2016 which were the transposition of UCITS V into the Luxembourg legislation and the adoption of the Law on reserved alternative investment funds, a new vehicle that is attracting much attention from asset managers.

These publications have been extremely useful to our members and to the international investment fund community, and I’m sure they will continue to be so”.

These two publications of the main legal and regulatory texts were produced by the two Luxembourg law firms, Arendt & Medernach and Elvinger Hoss Prussen, who have cooperated to select, consolidate and compile the legal and regulatory texts relevant to the different types of investment vehicles concerned.

Regular updates will be published to keep track with ongoing changes and additions to Luxembourg laws, regulations and circulars.
