July 27, 2016--Despite the fact that Brexit will presumably not take effect until early 2019 or later, the impact of the UK's vote to leave the European Union has begun to sink in and has triggered a debate also in the funds market.

Impact on UK fund managers
For now and at least for the two-year exit negotiation period, passporting as established by the AIFM-Directive for UK-AIFMs and AIFs will continue as usual. In case the EEA option will be realized, the UK fund managers would still be able to benefit from the current passporting regime.
