Beschreibung

The project addresses to the study of Liechtenstein's fund location and its competitiveness in international comparison. The specific topics are sub classified into three phases. Phase 1 investigates the attractiveness of Liechtenstein as a fund domicile. It is represented by the evaluation of a survey among domestic and foreign German-speaking fund leaderships and independent asset managers from abroad. Phase 2 deals with the segment of alternative investments. Liechtenstein's legal framework for qualified investors and alternative investment funds based on the new law of investment undertakings (IUG) are opposed to comparable competitor's products of other fund locations. The closing part (phase 3) concentrates on the greenpaper of the European Commission and its potential ascendancies on Liechtenstein by mean of reactions of institutions, investors and public authorities of the European fund industry.
