This book is to be placed in an unexploited niche in the fund industry literature: it
has first to be distinguished from the main strand of the literature on mutual funds
focusing on funds selection's methods and portfolio management strategies available to
funds 'managers'.
This book aims at providing the readers with a comprehensive overview of the
Luxemburg fund industry together with a better understanding of the mechanisms
governing the interactions between its different actors. The goal is to enable the readers
to better apprehend the functioning of industry as a whole from both a legal and
practical perspective and to operate more efficiently within the industry.
As a consequence, the book must be distinguished from practitioner oriented
compilations of legal texts and references.
The contribution of renowned experts of fund industry in Luxembourg permitted to
summarize the operating in Luxembourg. Consequently, this book aspires to become a
reference on the topic. Students in Finance, Law and Management considering a career
in the fund industry will benefit from this book by gaining a better understanding of
fund industry as a whole, which would improve their employability in this sector.
Under the supervision of Danielle Sougné, this work gathers the contributions of Xavier
Balthazar, Tarik Bazgour, Yves Francis, Claude Hoffman, Michel Maquil and Jérôme
Wigny.
