In this episode, our Partner Stéphane Karolczuk and Managing Director Danny Howell from FundSight explore the third-party AIFM model, its role in supporting non-EU asset managers, and the key challenges it solves. They discuss the AIFM’s core responsibilities in portfolio and risk management, the delegation versus advisory models, and fund sponsor preferences in Asia.

The conversation also highlights the AIFMD Passport, and the steps to onboard an AIFM and launch a fund for EU distribution. A concise guide for managers navigating European fund structures and strategies.

Stay tuned for our next episode, where we will explore parallel fund structuring from a fund sponsor’s perspective.
