Common Pitfalls to Avoid7

Exam Traps8

Key Numbers10

Chapter 1: Investment Fund Regulations

The Investment Fund Regulations make the fund manager primarily responsible for managing the fund, offering its units and keeping its terms and conditions clear, complete and accurate. The manager acts in a fiduciary capacity, must put unitholders' interests first and remains liable for loss caused by fraud, negligence, misconduct or wilful default. Delegating work to another person does not reduce that responsibility. Financial statements must be prepared in Arabic; the Arabic text prevails if a translation conflicts. Public-fund half-year statements are reviewed under SOCPA standards and annual statements are audited. Special commission arrangements may provide execution-related services or research that benefits the fund, but direct cash payments to the fund manager are prohibited.
