APEC Economies consult on Proposed Rules for Asia Region Funds Passport
The proposed rules cover areas such as the eligibility and operational criteria for passport fund managers and passport funds, as well as the authorisation process for passport funds. The rules also set out common standards and expectations amongst regulators from passport member economies on the supervision of passport funds, including the protection of investor interests. When implemented, the ARFP will allow fund managers operating in a passport member economy to offer their funds in other passport member economies under a streamlined authorisation process.
The consultation and response paper can be viewed at the ARFP website (Click here to view the consultation paper). Interested parties are invited to submit their views and comments to the Monetary Authority of Singapore by 10 April 2015.
