Eltifs,First 2 authorised by A.M.F. in France

A.M.F. has authorised the  first two ELTIF funds

The   ELTIF funds authorised by A.M.F. in France are two specialised professional funds which are classified as French limited partnerships, or SLPs. The funds have made their aim to invest €1.2 billion of equity or quasi-equity into long-term infrastructure projects. They will not have the capacity to originate loans, and have been restricted to professional investors only, they will also offer set terms for redemptions over the 25-year life span of each fund.

These are the first two funds off the racing block and will be watched by many both for how they are structured and how they are implemented.

As it is expected that these types of funds will eventually  total 400 billion euros a year and infrastructure investment throughout Europe will be large ,the toe in the water has been placed .

And the starting block has been placed for more to follow.

ELTIFS in Europe

As we move on towards the first issue of an Eltif  www.eltifsinthe.eu  we wonder how it will be actually structured and for how much.Retail investors are looking for many ways to invest their funds and this should wet their appetite . The diverse  types of investment within an Eltif if structured correctly should spread any risk  more evenly.

Eltifs Authorisation is Past the Winning Post

We are now past the winning post with regards to the authorisation date for Eltifs.

We now await the first  European Long Term Investment Fund to see how investors react to the format .

With the amount of investment required in infrastructure throughout the U.K. and Europe it will be interesting to find out which state it will be based in. 

Both Luxembourg and Ireland are working hard to attract such funds to be based .They are both ready to accept them.

The structure of such funds will be important to determine the types of investor they attract.

As we move towards the date for acceptance and operation of the E.U. legislation on ELTIFS,9th December 2015 I wonder how many financial advisors and financial managers are aware of these type of investments?

For the high net worth individual ,that is a Retail Investor ,information on these types of investment should already start to be more active in the media so as to build up the connection and infrastructure needed  for when the Funds are set up ready for investment.

There are many objectives for these funds and it does look from initial research and following information with regards to projects that come under the umbrella of Eltifs that there will be plenty of projects put on hold or that require funding that will ,and will look as , they are suitable for these funds and will pass the criteria for inclusion.

The general consensus is that these funds will probably reach an investment total of about 400 Billion Euros per year which should attract the best Alternative Investment Fund Managers to get involved.

When we know how the U.K. Treasury are going to set there alterations with regards to the passports which Eltifs will have with regards to U.K. law we will inform you of these.
