On November 11, 2010, after 18 months of uncertainty and heated argument, the European Parliament adopted a final, agreed text of the European AIFM Directive. Due to be implemented across the EU by the beginning of 2013, the AIFM Directive will have hugely significant implications for investment managers, their funds and service providers—whether located in, or outside, the EU.

This note contains (a) an executive summary of the key components of the AIFM Directive, and (b) a detailed analysis of the provisions and of the global impact of the AIFM Directive.
