Get in touch

A fund manager can offer one or more of the services listed below:

  • Securities portfolio management
  • Investment advice
  • Holding fund units or shares for clients
  • Fund management services for funds whose assets the fund manager does not manage.

The legal and regulatory framework applicable to investment firms is harmonised at the EU level. Therefore, we can support your company in getting a fund manager license in Estonia and other selected European jurisdictions.

Further, we can assist your investment firm to guarantee its compliance during its operations.
