Deadline Fast Approaching: Ensure The Distribution Of Your Fund Is FinSA-Compliant
HOW TO ENSURE THE DISTRIBUTION OF YOUR FUND IS FINSA-COMPLIANT
The Swiss Financial Services Act (FinSA) came into force on 1 January, 2020 and as a result, it changed the regulatory requirements concerned with offering investment funds to Swiss investors. The expanded requirements now include the following:
- Affiliation to an ombudsman;
- Registration of client advisors;
- Professional insurance requirements;
- New organizational rules;
- New conduct rules; and
- A new classification of investors
Ombudsman:
Dec 24, 2020
Registration of client advisors: Jan 19, 2021
Full FinSA compliance:
Dec 31, 2021
The obligations that apply to each provider will depend on the type of product being offered and one should note that there is a transition period with different deadlines to allow all financial service providers to be fully compliant with the new rules and regulations.
Oligo provides clients with a comprehensive solution package to ensure full compliance with FinSA.
