UCITS 5 Directive- Guide for Asset Management Companies

Directive 2014/91/EU of 23 July 2014 on UCITS, the so-called UCITS V Directive, was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 28 August 2014 with a requirement for transposition into French law by 18 March 2016 and immediate entry into force. Prior to its transposition, the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) is publishing a guide to help management companies and answer questions about how the UCITS V Directive will impact their business. This guide may be updated as regulations evolve.
