To further support article 8 and article 9 funds, we have established the Maples Group Sustainability Platform ICAV (“the Platform”), dedicated to hosting sustainable funds looking for distribution solutions in the European Union.
The Platform is an Irish Collective Asset Management Vehicle (“ICAV”). It is an umbrella fund, specifically structured to host environmental, social, governance and sustainability-focused funds. The Platform is managed and promoted by Maples Fund Management Ireland Limited, the Maples Group’s Central Bank of Ireland authorised UCITS management company and alternative investment fund manager.
The Platform offers a turnkey solution for clients looking to launch a segregated EU SFDR-compliant Article 8 or Article 9 sub-fund, allowing them to take advantage of the high demand for ESG focused funds in Europe. EU and non-EU clients looking for a flexible solution for SFDR compliance and European distribution can take advantage of an established fund platform with regulatory approval and legal agreements already in place.
The Platform affords clients access to industry leading ESG practices and service providers for ESG advisory, fund management, fund distribution, operational and reporting solutions.
