The Key Features and Benefits of the Irish Investment Limited Partnership are:

  • Regulated EU AIF;

    - closed-ended/finite life

    - distribution waterfalls and carried interest

  • With an authorised AIFM, an ILP can be passported to market to professional investors in EU. Otherwise, may be sold in relevant EU Member States under national private placement rules (where available);

  • Requires an AIFM but AIFM can be EU authorised, Irish registered (sub-threshold) or Non-EU, each with differing sales capacities;

  • Inward/outward migration capacity;

  • Real Assets Depositary option available;
