ESMA Publishes Q&A Application Of The AIFMD
Date 25/03/2014
I. Background
- The Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) puts in place a comprehensive frame-work for the regulation of alternative investment fund managers within Europe. The extensive re-quirements with which AIFMs must comply are designed to ensure that these managers can manage AIFs on a cross-border basis and the AIFs that they manage can be sold on a cross-border basis.
- The AIFMD framework is made up of the following EU legislation:
2a. Directive 2011/61/EU, which was adopted in 2011. It is a ‘framework’ Level 1 Directive which has been supplemented by technical delegated and implementing measures.
2b. Commission Regulation (EU) No 231/2013, Commission Regulation (EU) No 447/2013 and Commission Regulation (EU) No 448/2013.
- ESMA is required to play an active role in building a common supervisory culture by promoting common supervisory approaches and practices. In this regard, the Authority develops Q&As as and when appropriate to elaborate on the provisions of certain EU legislation or ESMA guidelines.
- The European Commission has already published its own Q&A on AIFMD.

Good afternoon – and thank you for inviting me to speak here today.
The panel is focusing on issues and policies affecting global systemically important insurers (G-SIIs) after designation - and I’ve been asked to focus specifically on challenges. But before I do, I’d like to take a step back and first set the scene - in my capacity as Chair of the Financial Stability Committee (FSC) - for the work that the International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS) is delivering, and why it is so important.
