SBAI Responds to House of Lords EU Committee Call for Evidence AIFMD

How the SBAI engages with the regulatory community

This is the inaugural episode from our newly launched SBAI and Morgan Lewis Regulatory Compliance podcast series. It is co-hosted by Christine Ayako Schleppegrell, Partner at Morgan Lewis and Brian Digney, Research and Content Director at the SBAI. This new collaboration aims to provide valuable insights into regulatory developments impacting the alternative investment industry. 

In the wake of the reversal of the SEC’s Private Fund Adviser Rules, the weight of transparency and fairness in alternative funds now lies on managers and investors.

The SBAI supports the latest efforts by the regulators to understand and address any potential risks emanating from non-bank financial institutions (NBFI) and welcomes findings which indicate resilience in the financial system despite prior concerns.

Over the last months, we have continued to engage and meet with the US SEC on a range of proposed rules – raising specific concerns about the unintended consequences of the Safeguarding Advisory Client Assets Rule and the Predictive Analytics Rule.
