For Indian asset managers looking to expand internationally, launching a European-domiciled fund is a strategic move. Our on-demand webinar, Gateway to Europe for Indian managers, provides practical insight into how to navigate the fund launch process, from regulatory approval to investor outreach.
Launching a fund in Europe typically takes 10 to 14 weeks. This depends on the fund structure, UCITS or non-UCITS, regulatory timelines, and operational readiness. Ireland is often the jurisdiction of choice, thanks to its efficient regulatory framework, strong service provider ecosystem, and investor-friendly environment.
Why UCITS is a preferred route
The UCITS framework remains a powerful passport for distribution across Europe and beyond. It offers strong investor protection, liquidity, and transparency, making it particularly attractive for retail-focused strategies. Ireland’s role as a leading UCITS hub gives Indian managers a reliable, well-regulated base for scaling into European markets.
Choosing the right fund structure and jurisdiction is key, and this webinar outlines what Indian managers should consider when evaluating their options.
