Summary

  • Guidance details the documents and information to be submitted by authorised investment fund managers (IFMs) for the assessment of their shareholding structure.
  • Lists minimum documentation to be provided to LUX CSSF for assessing shareholding structure for both the initial authorisation and any subsequent amendments.
  • LUX CSSF reserves right to request additional information/documents if appropriate.
