The Directive on Alternative Investment Fund Managers: Comparative Analysis of Certain Aspects of the Regulatory Regimes of Europe, Canada and the United States of AmericaHernandez, Miguel A. 21 March 2012 (has links)
The Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive ("AIFMD"), adopted by the European Union on 11 November 2010, has introduced a harmonized set of rules for alternative investment funds (“AIFs”) in Europe.
This thesis discusses potential financial risks for the AIFs industry arising from the European regulatory reform, which started before the current financial crisis, and compares relevant European, Canadian and US rules governing AIFs. This comparative analysis is based on four main criteria: i) registration and authorization requirements, ii) general financial transparency requirements, iii) capital requirements, and iv) remuneration restrictions.
The analysis of AIFs regulatory reform in Europe leads to three main conclusions. First, the AIFMD requirements are much stricter than analogue regimes in Canada and the United States. Second, as a consequence of this regulation, European AIFs may be in disadvantage. Third, the complexity of the present European institutional framework is not able to fully implement the European regulatory reform.

Crossing the energy efficiency chasm : an assessment of the barriers to institutional investment at scaleParker, Martin January 2019 (has links)
Significant savings in CO2 emissions can be won from fabric upgrades, and improved forms of heating. An increase in the number of building retrofits and installations of energy efficient plant such as biomass boilers or CCHPs must be the aim if the UK is serious in meeting its commitment to CO2 reduction at both the domestic and EU level. A way of achieving this increase, which will need to be significant, would be to tap into the vast funds under management by institutional investors who are required to invest those funds to optimise its monetary return, taking into account the level of risk. The aim of the research is to identify the enabling conditions that would need to exist to attract institutional investment in energy efficiency at scale. The UK Green Investment Bank has invested £50m into three energy efficiency funds, requiring each fund manager to match the amount by attracting investment from institutional investors. It is these funds that have been analysed as a single Green Investment Bank case study. Embedded units of analysis are on two levels with the individual funds being the first, and the institutional investors investing in those funds as the second. A hybrid deductive and inductive qualitative approach to the research was taken employing thematic analysis. The findings of the research reported here indicate that the emerging key enabling conditions that would make energy efficiency an attractive proposition are firstly, the way energy efficiency investments are classified in terms of an investment asset class, secondly the contractual structure of the individual transactions made by the funds, and finally, the experience and familiarity of the fund manager.

Does Fundamental Analysis Lead to a Rudimentary Momentum Strategy for the Inexperienced Investor? Evidence from a Student Investment FundLillie, Nicholas J 01 January 2017 (has links)
Using the Student Investment Fund at Claremont McKenna College as a proxy for inexperienced investors, I demonstrate that inexperienced investors using fundamental analysis produce momentum-like buying patterns. The results show that the Student Investment Fund is on average buying stocks that outperform Carhart’s four-factor asset pricing model in the year before purchase. As a result, the Student Investment Fund has, on average, underperformed the S&P500 by .48% per year since 1996. My thesis explores why the Student Investment Fund may have adopted momentum-like purchasing patterns and what steps can be taken to remedy it.

Regulation of Hedge Funds and Private Equity in the Light of the Global Financial Crisis / Regulation of Hedge Funds and Private Equity in the Light of the Global Financial CrisisŠinka, Michal January 2011 (has links)
The aim of the thesis is to analyse the non-bank regulatory framework with particular attention devoted to hedge funds and private equity funds. The thesis describes functioning of the funds, discusses their performance during the global financial crisis of 2007-present and, predominantly, describes and analyses the EU and U.S. regulatory reforms with respect to these institutions which have arisen as a response to the crisis. Based on the analysis of the measures incorporated in these reforms, the thesis outlines its own proposal of an alternative investment fund regulatory framework which, if applied, would lead to a more efficient functioning of the alternative investment industry than what is likely to be the outcome of the already adopted reforms. The nature of the thesis is institutional; its methodology is characterized by a broad literature survey. Hedge funds and private equity funds are considered both in pre-crisis context as well as in circumstances that have been brought about by the crisis. Several hypotheses concerning systemic risk and the approach of the regulatory reforms to it are assessed. Mostly qualitative analysis is employed to evaluate the hypotheses.

Um modelo para financiamento de parques tecnológicos no Brasil: explorando o potencial dos fundos de investimento. / Technology parks finance model: exploring the potencial of investment funds.Gargione, Luiz Antonio 20 May 2011 (has links)
Os Parques Científicos e Tecnológicos (PCTs) são considerados instrumentos de política de apoio à inovação e transferência de tecnologia. Os parques procuram oferecer uma infra-estrutura física e organizacional favorável ao estabelecimento de empresas de base tecnológica que se beneficiam dos resultados das aglomerações dessas empresas. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar uma arquitetura de um modelo inovador para financiamento de Parques Científicos e Tecnológicos no Brasil. A proposição do novo modelo explora o potencial dos fundos de investimento como mecanismo de financiamento para os parques. A arquitetura do novo modelo apresentado neste trabalho utilizou uma estrutura norteada pelos moldes de um project finance associada ao uso do Fundo de Investimento em Participações (FIP), e o Fundo de Investimento Imobiliário (FII), como fontes de obtenção de recursos para o financiamento do empreendimento. A metodologia utilizada neste trabalho foi pesquisa-ação que contou com uma etapa de ensaio e avaliação do novo modelo. / The Science and Technology Parks (STPs) are considered useful instruments to promote innovation and transfer of technology. These parks usually offer well developed Real Estate and Research (R&D) infrastructure for the organizations and for Technology Based Firms (TBFs). The firms located in these parks can acquire strategic benefits from the effects of clustering. The main objective of this research is to propose an innovative model for the finance of STPs in Brazil. The proposed model is based on the use of private equity and real estate funds as mechanisms of finance for these parks. The model proposed in this research uses the project finance concept combined with the Brazilian Fundo de Investimento em Participações (FIP, a private equity fund) and the Fundo de Investimento Imobiliário (FII, a real estate fund). The main methodology used in this work was action research that included the testing phase and the evaluation of the model by specialists in the field.
