Collective Investment Schemes
Malta has established a comprehensive regulatory and legal framework for the establishment of all types of Collective Investment Schemes and institutional funds.
Collective investment schemes (“CISs”) are regulated by the Investment Services Act (the “ISA”). For regulatory purposes, collective investment schemes are divided in the following categories:
- Retail Collective Investment Schemes
- Professional Investor Funds (“PIFs”): PIFs promoted to Experienced Investors, Qualifying Investors and Extraordinary Investors; and
- Private Collective Investment Schemes (such schemes are exempt from the licensing requirement if they are recognised by the MFSA).
A tailored regime was put in place for Retirement Funds, which are regulated by and under the Special Funds (Regulation) Act (2002).
From a regulatory point of view, the benefits of domiciling funds in Malta include:
- Prompt and efficient registration and regulatory process
- Low Fees
- Tax-efficient domicile
