Remuneration Policies Applicable to Alternative Investment Fund Managers

The French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) implements ESMA guidelines on remuneration policies for Alternative Investment Fund Managers (AIFMs) to prevent poorly designed compensation structures from undermining risk management. The AMF integrates these guidelines into a formal position that adapts specific provisions to the size, organization, and complexity of the manager's activities. This regulatory framework entered into force on January 1, 2017, ensuring alignment with European standards for financial sector remuneration.
