The fund industry in Gibraltar
Gibraltar is fast becoming a major player in the global fund industry as new legislation
governing Experienced Investor Funds (EIFs) has proved agreeable to fund managers
across the world.
The EIF legislation was implemented to expand Gibraltar’s range of financial services.
It has revolutionised Gibraltar as a location for funds, utilising a light touch
regulation, combined with advantages under the European Parent Subsidiary Directive
and a well established network of experienced fund professionals such as lawyers,
accountants, administrators and custodians. The result is a jurisdiction that now
has more than 60 funds located and administered there, plus several real estate
and private equity funds sponsored by big international investment banking players
like Goldman Sachs and Credit Suisse.
