Abu Dhabi: FSRA Seeks Views on the Introduction of Private Credit Funds

12 December 2022: The Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) of Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) has published a consultation paper seeking views from fund managers and investors on introducing private credit funds within the FSRA’s collective investment funds regulatory regime.

The aim of the private credit funds – collective investment funds that originate loans to borrowers, purchase existing loans from third-party lenders, or invest in a combination of the preceding – is to increase the fund options in ADGM and attract start-ups and SMEs.

The funds will only be offered to professional clients as either qualified investor funds or exempt funds.
Further information is available on the ADGM website.
