UCITS
Dillon Eustace is a leading adviser on Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (UCITS), the gold standard EU investment fund products
Working in this dynamic environment, Dillon Eustace continues to play a leadership role in UCITS evolution domestically and internationally.
UCITS are collective investment schemes based on harmonised EU regulation. UCITS established and authorised in one EU Member State effectively have a marketing “passport” – they can be sold throughout the EU with a single home member state authorisation and the principle of mutual recognition. The rules for permitted asset classes and governance requirements continue to evolve, ensuring that UCITS remains a popular and dynamic investment management product.
Dillon Eustace offers a comprehensive UCITS advisory service. We have significant experience of advising on all types of UCITS structures, including Irish Collective Asset-management Vehicles (ICAVs), investment companies, unit trusts, and common contractual funds. Our service covers a wide range of product types and strategies, including traditional long only equity and bond UCITS, structured UCITS, UCITS platforms, alternative UCITS, exchange traded funds (ETFs), money market funds, and liquidity funds.
Our experienced asset management and investment funds specialists act for UCITS of all kinds – including a large number of umbrella type and single strategy type UCITS with differing liquidity, legal and contractual arrangements. We also advise clients using all the leading service providers based in Dublin. We also advise Irish UCITs managed by UCITS management companies located in other EU jurisdictions.
