On 22 July 2012 the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority (“ESCA”) issued the much anticipated new UAE investment fund regulation (the “Regulation”) pursuant to resolution no. 37 of 2012. The Regulation shall come into force from the day after it is published in the UAE Official Gazette, which is expected to be in early September 2012.

Key changes to UAE funds regime -
