ESMA makes available lists of registers for investment firms, tied agents and UCITS management companies

08 June 2012

ESMA has made the lists for investment firms, tied agents and UCITS management companies available today, according to its obligations under the Omnibus Directive.

The Omnibus Directive requires ESMA to establish a list all authorisations granted to UCITS management companies in the European Union.

ESMA is currently working on the IT solution to establish this list on its website. The list will centralise all the relevant information in this regard received from all national competent authorities.

As a temporary solution, the list contains hyperlinks to the webpages of the EU countries and their national competent authorities giving access to national registers that contain the list of authorised UCITS management companies. ESMA draws users' attention to the fact that some hyperlinks do not give direct access to the list of UCITS management companies authorised. Also, investors should note that for some competent authorities the information is only available in the national language.
