Finansinspektionen amended its regulations on Swedish UCITS to permit management companies to distribute key investor information documents and prospectuses via durable media or websites, while maintaining a requirement to provide free paper copies upon request. The regulator mandated that these documents must be provided in Swedish for both Swedish and foreign UCITS, with specific exemptions for certain documents under Chapter 4, section 16b of the Swedish UCITS Act. These regulatory changes were decided on 13 December 2022 and entered into force on 1 January 2023.
