Regulatory AlertsDOC-2012-15 Criteria Applicable to Collective Sharing Investments
The French Financial Markets Authority (AMF) issued DOC-2012-15 to define the specific criteria that collective investment schemes must meet to qualify as 'sharing' investments. The document mandates strict adherence to rules regarding beneficiary eligibility, donation distribution methods, investor information, and donation calculation mechanisms. Although the text notes it has not yet been updated to reflect MIF 2 transposition, it establishes the foundational regulatory framework for this specific product classification.
