Alternative investments
As demand for alternative investments grows, investors are increasingly looking for innovative solutions that keep pace with their new expectations. Alternative investments, for example, will appear as a building block in more and more pensions solutions.
The structuring toolbox has already been expanded in the past in terms of legal vehicles available for alternative investments. ALFI will seek to develop the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) regime as one of the key elements of the Luxembourg toolbox, alongside a drive to refine and improve existing structures.

We seek to take further steps that will broaden its leading position in the Alternatives value chain towards investor relations, limited partnerships (LPs) and fundraising.
