Luxembourg Private Equity Conference in Frankfurt
Luxembourg: International private equity location
German fund managers have been working successfully with Luxembourg for decades. In this seminar we will discuss the current opportunities that Luxembourg offers to German PE companies in a practical way. Which fund structures have proven themselves best on the market and are efficient for German investors? What does a Luxembourg fund mean for day-to-day operations?
This discussion is embedded in the current developments around Brexit, the emerging changes in the AIFM directive as well as global tax issues such as ATAD. Experts from Luxembourg and Germany discuss together. PE managers report on their experiences in Luxembourg and give an insight into the leading private equity center of the EU.
The event takes place in German.
