Goals / Remit
ALFI’s main objectives are to:
* Help members capitalize on industry trends
ALFI’s numerous Technical Committees and Working Groups are permanently analyzing global industry developments as well as legal and regulatory changes in Luxembourg, in the EU and beyond and the threats and opportunities these may constitute for the Luxembourg fund sector.
* Shape regulation
A modern and innovative legal and fiscal environment is of key importance to defend and improve the competitive position of Luxembourg as a center for the domiciliation, administration and distribution of investment funds. Its close contacts to the regulatory authority, the government and the legislative body allow ALFI to contribute to shape regulation by bringing valuable input when there is need to adapt the regulatory framework, to adopt a new European Directive or to create a specific regulatory framework for new products or services.
* Encourage professionalism, integrity and quality
(...)Main EU files targeted

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
