New funds under management

Full-scope UK AIFMs

Authorised AIFMs must seek approval to manage new AIFs or sub-funds under AIFMD before management of the new stand-alone fund or sub-fund commences.

Sub-threshold AIFMs

Sub-threshold AIFMs must notify us before you start to manage a new AIF or sub-fund in accordance with the requirements set out in SUP 15.3.29R

Please notify us through Gabriel if you stop managing any AIF or sub-fund or wish to notify us of a material change to any AIF details.

Full-scope UK AIFMs notifying us of an AIF that will be listed on the NPPR

Full-scope UK AIFMs intending to make use of NPPR[6] under Article 36 must first notify us of the intention to manage the AIF and only then apply for NPPR once we have confirmed that the AIFM has been recorded as the AIFM to the Article 36 AIF.
