EQT says that the decision to concentrate its fund management to Luxembourg is based on the predictability needed to ensure a top-quality product and service level.

The consolidated hub for General Partners is managed under the EU directive for Alternative Investment Fund Managers (AIFMD) and is a transparent and long-term solution, beneficial for both investors and other stakeholders.

Peter Veldman, who has more than 20 years in the European investment industry, is appointed Head of Fund Management.
