Description
In terms of the setting-up of Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) investment vehicles, Luxembourg today offers a large variety of structuring opportunities, such as the investment company in risk capital (SICAR), the Specialised Investment Fund (SIF), the Reserved Alternative Investment Fund, any commercial company and/or any other holding company like the SOPARFI, as the case may be, or in particular the partnership structures (such as the Special Limited Partnership), qualifying as an AIF. In addition, Luxembourg commercial companies can also be set up as venture capital vehicles based on the European EuVECA Regulation, or as a European Long-Term Investment Fund based on the European ELTIF Regulation.
Luxembourg-based service providers have built up teams experienced and specialised in servicing the abovementioned PE and VC investment vehicles. Against this background, they are today able to offer a wide range of customised services in fund and acquisition structuring, transaction advisory, fund administration, depositary and audit services dedicated to PE and VC investment vehicles.
