Heightened regulatory oversight spawned by the financial crisis is now, years later, poised to have some of its most significant impact as key directives are taking force.   In Europe, UCITS IV has proven to be a significant challenge for funds and their service providers.  Now, with the AIFM directive on the horizon, fund administrators are bracing to deal with even more strain on their operations.   In today’s global economy, the introduction of new regulations has far reaching operational impact.

With these critical regulatory mandates front and center, assessing the impact of UCITS IV while understanding the timing and anticipated operational burden of implementing AIFMD is paramount for asset managers and their service providers.  Balancing the need to scale with demands to operate with increasing efficiency and control, administrators are turning to automated solutions to replace manual processes and brittle, error-prone spreadsheets.

Join Confluence and our guest panel of industry experts as we explore these regulatory changes and how they are necessitating the need for fundamental operational change for fund administrators.

Specific topics to be covered include: 

• UCITS IV and its fund administration implementation challenges, including implications of master feeder structures, cross border mergers, KIID / PRIPS, management company passport, etc.
• Anticipating the AIFM directive and the operational impact it will have on asset managers and their fund administrators as they cope with increased disclosure and regulatory reporting challenges.
• The global impact of regulatory change.
