Gibraltar funds may now opt out of the AIFMD regulations so that they can be completely competitive with funds from the Channel Islands or the Caribbean jurisdictions. This is of course as a result of Brexit.

Gibraltar is now in the position to maintain its long established AIFMD compliant funds management regime (which has direct access to the United Kingdom) whilst also providing the option for certain EIFs to opt out, safely, of this regime when targeting global audiences.
