"'...offers an excellent analysis of the rules of the AIFMD (including delegated legislation), always pointing out practical consequences and uncertainties. Nothing of practical relevance is left out In conclusion, this book fulfills the promise: it provides the reader with fast-track access to the regulation at European and national level of nine EU Member States. It is more than worthwhile reading for anybody wishing to take a look at the implementation in other member states or to follow the dynamic development of fund management law and regulation in Europe.'" - Markus Heidinger, J.I.B.L.R.
