Implications of AIFMD II for EU AIFMs and Non-EU Managers

The Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive II (AIFMD II), which is due to come into force on 16 April 2026, introduces a number of changes to the existing AFIMD regime that could significantly impact EU (and to a lesser extent, non-EU) managers. These changes aim to enhance investor protection, improve market stability, and harmonise rules across the EU, but they also bring new compliance challenges and operational considerations for fund managers, with the biggest uplift expected for those AFIMs managing AIFs that engage in loan origination activities.

Join us for our two-part webinar series, where we will delve into the key implications of AIFMD II for both EU and Non-EU based managers:
