Government legislates for new private fund limited partnerships

printer Mail

HM Treasury has published the draft Legislative Reform (Private Fund Limited Partnerships) Order 2016, together with an explanatory document, to introduce a new private fund limited partnership (PFLP) structure, which will be available to private investment funds established as limited partnerships, such as private equity and venture capital funds, from April 2017. A limited partnership must be constituted by an agreement in writing and be a collective investment scheme to be designated as a PFLP. The government consulted on its proposals during 2015, announcing at Budget 2016 its intention to legislate for this new type of partnership. See http://bit.ly/2jWRXm0.
