The Fund is expected to be an unregulated collective investment scheme for the purposes of Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and an Alternative Investment Fund for the purposes of the UK Alternative Investment Fund Managers Regulations 2013 as amended (the “AIFM Regulations”) and therefore the promotion of the Fund is restricted by law.
