WR Asset Management: When does a company qualify as an alternative investment fund? A particular focus on project financing
Various types of companies may qualify as alternative investment funds (AIFs). This has practical significance due to the extensive regulations governing the management of AIFs. The Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway (FSAN) actively monitors this area and conducted thematic inspections of entities involved in project financing in the spring of 2023. FSAN's annual report for 2023 also indicates a notable increase in the number of Norwegian AIFs.
