Amicorp Group, which offers fund management and administration services, has been granted an Alternative Investment Fund Manager (AIFM) license in Spain to manage and structure European Alternative Investment Funds (AIF) for international investors and asset managers — particularly those in Latin America.
The Sociedades Gestoras de Entidades de Inversión Colectiva de tipo cerrado (SGEIC) license, approved under EU Directive 2011/61 as a Model 2 license, can be passported into any EU country, enabling fund managers, family offices, institutional investors and entrepreneurs to access European markets and investors.
With many Bilateral Investment and Double Taxation Treaties in place, European AIFs offer international investors with stable regulatory frameworks, access to diverse private asset investment and marketing opportunities.
Francisco Donada, CEO of Amicorp Capital Management, SGEIC, says: “Our license means investors and asset managers can quickly establish and operate fully EU-compliant AIFs through a simplified process as part of their growth or risk diversification strategy.
“Spain was a natural choice to apply for this license as part of our focus to support investors across emerging markets. The country serves as a gateway for businesses and investors from Latin America in particular, where beyond its deep-rooted cultural and linguistic ties, it continues to grow as one of the main destinations for foreign direct investments for the LatAm region.”
