Objectifs

AIFs vehicles are becoming increasingly popular in the Luxembourg marketplace.

Although this asset class was already represented in Luxembourg with several vehicles in the form of UCI or unregulated vehicles, the recent trends have highlighted to local administrators and depositaries that ALT investments are an asset class with totally different features and risk factors requiring specific skills and specific operational processes.

In this context, PwC's Academy is pleased to offer this dedicated training designed to provide Luxembourg professionals with a comprehensive overview of the latest industry trends, as well as a thorough analysis of sector-specific issues and best practices.

By the end of this training, the participants will be able to:

  • identify the valuations methodology and related accounting impacts;
  • understand the life cycle of an AIF and related accounting entries;
  • understand the operating/accounting flows within an AIF;
