– Ensuring you are prepared for the latest legislation and beyond

Tuesday 27 November 2012 l ICO Conference Centre (opp. Sanderson London) l Central London l W1

On 14 November 2012 the FSA issued a 232 page consultation paper on the Implementation of the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive.

This Consultation Paper (CP) is the first of two on rules and guidance to transpose the requirements of the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) into UK law. This means making changes to primary and secondary legislation (which the Treasury will consult on) and to the FSA Handbook.

The AIFM Directive is now in force, and Member States have until July 2013 to transpose the Directive into national law.

Attend this conference to benefit from expert analysis and guidance on:

• AIFM Directive Level 2 Implementation Measures
• Overcome practical challenges in operating under the directive
• Understand the latest EU updates on policy and regulation and how it applies to the UK
• Be prepared for July 2013 transposition into national law
• Gain industry insights into the changing trustee and depository liability
• Hear a comparative overview from leading EU member states
• Examine new remuneration guidelines and how they will work in practice
• Address the challenges of leverage and transparency requirements

Through company case studies, in-depth presentations and panel discussions, Private Equity Forum's 3rd AIFM Directive 2012 Conference will provide you with clarification on the next series of changes to ensure you are aware of the necessary key actions and deadlines.
