Luxembourg Remains a Significant Point of Entry for Non-E.U. Managers to Raise Capital in the E.U.

The Association of the Luxembourg Fund Industry (ALFI) recently organized a seminar that offered a current look at the state of cross-border fund marketing in the E.U. and opportunities for non-E.U. managers to gain access to that market through Luxembourg. The seminar, which was hosted by Anouk Agnes, deputy general director of ALFI, featured a keynote address from H.E. Pierre Gramegna, Luxembourg’s Minister of Finance, as well as panel discussions with representatives from financial services, legal and accounting firms, in addition to asset managers.
