ELTIF Authorisation Process – New Application Form and updated Website Guidance

AIFMD

Date: 11 March 2024

ELTIF Authorisation Process

(currently only applicable to closed-ended ELTIFs until such a time as the final RTS is available)

The authorisation process for ELTIFs will vary depending on the targeted investor type (Retail, Qualified or Professional). All ELTIF applications must be made through the Portal. Please see website guidance here for further information.

All ELTIF applications (whether it is solely a new authorisation or also contains post authorisation amendment(s) will submit final authorisation documents by 5.00 pm on the day prior to the proposed authorisation day. For Retail Investor ELTIFs this will mean the Authorisation Team will require dated documentation to be received no later than 10am on the day prior to the proposed authorisation day but ideally submitted as early as possible.
