The true impact of the Alternative Investment Fund Managers (AIFM) Directive is yet to be seen. It has been difficult to separate conjecture from reality as the focus has been on the increased pressure on firms rather than on practical means of applying the directive. The reality is that AIFM will undoubtedly impact the operational structure and transparency of alternative asset managers, but the key to success is to understand how to execute the measures of the directive efficiently.

'Making Sense of AIFM' presents a panel of expert speakers as they discuss the regulatory, compliance and commercial aspects of the directive. This lunchtime briefing will allow fund managers to gain clearer understanding of the responsibilities and risks involved with applying the requirements under AIFM.

Via open discussion with our expert panellists, delegates will discover how to fulfil the requirements under the directive without it being a detriment to the operation of their fund.
