MPMF Fund Management (Ireland) Limited (MPMF), the Maples group’s alternative investment fund manager (AIFM), has been authorised as a UCITS management company by the Central Bank of Ireland. 

“The UCITS management company authorisation will allow MPMF to gain investment momentum and ensure that managers have the resources and support they need to meet the risk and reporting requirements of UCITS funds,” says Scott Somerville (pictured), Chief Executive Officer at MaplesFS.
 
MPMF provides AIFM and UCITS management company solutions via both a fully hosted/outsourced solution as well as a delegation solution. Both models provide local management and fulfilment of all regulatory requirements, allowing managers to focus on investment management and marketing. MPMF also utilises a combination of proprietary and industry leading technology for risk and regulatory reporting, through our affiliate Maples Fund Services, allowing managers to focus on their core competencies, while ensuring that all aspects of fund governance, compliance and reporting are managed by the MPMF’s AIFM and UCITS specialists. 
 
"As global regulators’ UCITS requirements become more complex, investors are increasingly focused on risk management and compliance," says Naomi Daly, Senior Vice President at MPMF. "MPMF has a robust UCITS governance and compliance monitoring solution, backed by a highly knowledgeable risk management team and an in-house solution for producing daily UCITS risk monitoring reports.”
