AIFMD II Leverage Limits and Single Borrower Exposure Restriction

AIFMD II[1]introduces substantial changes to the EU-wide regulatory framework for alternative investment fund managers (“AIFMs”) that was established under AIFMD. The changes cover a wide range of areas but will have a particularly significant impact on funds that originate loans. Among the new rules on loan origination activities are leverage limits and single borrower exposure limits which are particularly relevant for the use of back-leverage by private credit funds operating in the EU. These new rules will also be relevant for AIFMs in the UK managing credit funds located in the EU.
