ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENT FUNDS
Our law firm also specializes in providing advice on alternative investment funds for entrepreneurs. This involves asset management comparable to the management of an investment fund under Section 15 of the Act on Investment Companies and Funds. These “mini-funds” allow the manager, under legally specified conditions, to collect funds from investors. These funds can then be invested, in accordance with a predetermined investment strategy, into various assets such as real estate (including development projects), stocks, ETFs, CFDs, commodities, and even alternative investments, for example, cryptocurrencies.
As part of our services in the field of alternative investment funds, we offer our clients comprehensive legal advice from establishing the legal entity that will perform the management, registering the manager with the Czech National Bank, to creating appropriate contractual documentation. We also assist clients with subsequent management, including fulfilling reporting obligations to the Czech National Bank and complying with obligations arising for these entities from the AML (Anti-Money Laundering) Act.
We also help clients determine whether this solution is suitable for them, or recommend other alternatives, such as bonds. Furthermore, we provide legal advice in the areas of regulation and compliance with relevant laws and regulations, such as AIFMD, MiFID II, and GDPR.
