Digital Assets Report

With apologies to the Bard himself, we hoped for at least a few months of consolidation after the implementation of AIFMD. However, since our regulatory forum in February, the FCA has released a number of key Consultation Papers ('CPs'), Discussion Papers ('DPs') in addition to the results of their thematic review on Market Abuse. We also currently have a backdrop of political uncertainty which may or may not affect our membership of the EU, as well as corporate and personal taxation. There is a good deal to keep us busy in the months ahead.
 
At this breakfast seminar we will bring together some of the most recent pertinent regulatory issues affecting asset management and securities firms, as well as examine post-election tax implications.
