European Long-Term Investment Fund (ELTIF)
The European Long-Term Investment Fund (ELTIF) is an investment vehicle designed for investors who want to make long-term investments into companies and projects. The current ELTIF regime allows all types of investors to invest long-term in European non-listed companies and in long-term assets such as real estate and infrastructure projects. Asset managers have a primary role to play in maximising the pooling and diversification of capital and managing collective investment schemes.
EFAMA believes that the current ELTIF Regulation needs to be amended, to fully unlock its potential and become a product of choice for investors. We advocate for an “evergreen” product with the recalibration of the regulation’s asset eligibility requirements, minimum investment amounts and the establishment of adequate tax incentives.
