What is it?

AIFMD reporting: What you need to know

In a nutshell, the Alternate Investment Fund Management Directive (AIFMD), also known as Annex IV, aims to create a regulation framework for alternative funds distributed in the European Union (EU).

The aim is to ensure investor protection and avoid systematic risk through regulating alternative investment fund managers and the distribution of AIFs in the EU.

What is AIFMD?

Does it affect me?

If you fall into one of these categories, you might well be in scope:

  • EU AIFMs managing AIFs, irrespective of their country of domiciliation (EU AIFs or non-EU AIFs)
  • Non-EU AIFMs managing EU AIFs
  • Non-EU AIFMs which market their AIFs in the EU

What do I need to do?

Make sure your firm understands its obligations and collates all the data and information required for your AIFMD report. Take care to follow the ESMA's designated reporting structure and requirements as you go along. Then validate and submit your report against the relative schema, create and download the XML output, and submit your report to the relevant authorities.

What's the deadline?

If your business is affected, then hopefully you’re already filing your AIFMD reports. Depending on a number of factors including the type of assets held, the assets under management (AuM), the degree of leverage, and whether the AIFM is authorised or registered. Annual reporters must submit their report 30 or 45 days after December 31st. Half yearly reports must submit 30 or 45 days after the June 30th and December 31st. Quarterly reporters must submit 30 or 45 days after March 31st, June 30th, September 30th and December 31st. So, it pays to be ready just in case.
