Regulatory Landscape
Global fund management involves navigating multiple regulatory regimes simultaneously. Key frameworks include SEC registration (US), AIFMD (EU), FCA authorization (UK), MAS licensing (Singapore), and SFC registration (Hong Kong). Offshore domiciles (Cayman, Luxembourg, Ireland, Jersey) provide structuring flexibility. Anti-money laundering (AML), tax reporting (CRS, FATCA), and ESG disclosure requirements create compliance complexity that favors larger, well-resourced managers.
