4 Gibraltar in Europe Position Gibraltar is part of the EU and has been since the accession of the UK on 1 January Article 355(4) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union applies the Treaty to European territories for whose external relations an EU Member State is responsible. UK is responsible for the external relations of Gibraltar. Gibraltar is not in the Customs Union, VAT does not apply. Legal system Law of Gibraltar is based on that of England and Wales, and the common law and the rules of equity apply. As part of the EU, Gibraltar is subject to European law. The European Communities Act 1972 gives legal effect to the European Treaties in Gibraltar without further enactment.
5 Gibraltar in Europe Implementation of EU Directives Gibraltar implements EU Directives by local legislation. Financial Services Directives implemented through close co-operation between Industry, Government and Regulator. Passporting As part of the EU: Gibraltar authorised firms may passport their services throughout the EU (by way of either direct notification or via the post box arrangement); and EU authorised firms may market into Gibraltar. Passporting under AIFMD: Notification to the FSC with supportive documentation FSC to notify AIFM within 20 business days Can commence marketing after 20 business days if no response received

Some NEW requirements imposed by AIFMD Capital requirements Self-managed: 300,000 External managers: 125,000 Plus 0.02% on amounts exceeding 250 million AuM Delegation requirements Gibraltar taking a flexible approach to letter-box provisions Remuneration 40%-60% that deferred for 3 to 5 years and at least 50% in shares of the AIF concerned Gibraltar will adopt the FCA approach of proportionality to disapply these specific provisions with respect to larger managers Local depositary Not relevant until July 2017 UCITS V introduction of depositary passport?
10 Difficulties for non-eu AIFMs/AIFs Marketing passport not available Earliest late-2015 Member States where private placement unavailable Spain, Latvia Member States restricting NPPRs Must apply to regulatory authority for authorisation prior to private placement: Denmark Germany Italy Offering restricted to maximum 150 investors and minimum investment of 100,000: Bulgaria Croatia Cyprus France
11 AIFM Application Process FSC Universal Application Form Business Plan Financial Projections Applicant s Policies on: Risk management Remuneration Liquidity management Conflicts of interest Delegation Valuation Presence in Gibraltar Four-eyes principle: 2 individuals effectively directing business in Gibraltar Presence in Gibraltar: (i) rent office space, or (ii) engage with providers of supportive solutions
12 Advantages of an EIF in Gibraltar Quickest time to market in EU Competitive costing No statutory investment or borrowing restrictions Listing possible / Bloomberg pricing Access to EU Parent Subsidiary Directive No licenced Promoter required Common law jurisdiction (English mother tongue) LIGHT TOUCH not SOFT TOUCH
13 EIFs & AIFMD EIF Regime + AIFMD Regime = Super EIFs EIF regime combined with no gold-plating in AIFMD transposition provides the greatest flexibility for fund structures in the EU EIF Regime does not require Custodian to be local, in addition, Regulator will allow EU depositaries to be appointed for full-scope AIFs until 2017 EIF Regime works TOGETHER with the AIFMD Regime
