Communication on the publication of two notification templates
ommunication on the publication of two notification templates to be completed when applying for the authorisation of an IFM to the CSSF, respectively when extending the activities of an existing IFM or modifying its shareholding structure.
The CSSF published two notification templates entitled “Authorised investment fund managers (“IFMs”) – type(s) of requested authorisation(s)” and ”Authorised investment fund managers (“IFMs”) – type(s) of requested change(s)” to be used with immediate effect when:

Furthermore, the template “Authorised investment fund managers (“IFMs”) – type(s) of requested change(s)” should also be used in the context of an acquisition of a qualifying holding in an IFM, a change of a reference shareholder and/or the creation of one or more branches.
