The European Long-Term Investment Fund (ELTIF) market is undergoing a significant transformation. With private credit surpassing private equity as the leading asset class for new ELTIF launches and more new products authorized in 2024 than in the previous three years combined, the demand for robust oversight and risk management has never been higher.
Regulatory changes, such as ELTIF 2.0, have paved the way for increased liquidity and broader investor participation. However, these new opportunities come with challenges—fund managers must scale up capabilities, improve transparency, and strengthen governance to maintain investor confidence.
This is where Fund Guardian comes in.
The Need for Real-Time Oversight in ELTIF Growth
Morningstar’s latest research highlights key risks in the ELTIF space:
✅ Liquidity Risks: Investors often underestimate liquidity constraints and overestimate after-fee returns.
✅ Transparency Gaps: Lack of disclosures on team composition, portfolio holdings, investment process, and performance creates challenges for fund selectors.
✅ Investor Due Diligence: With new entrants rushing into the market, assessing fund manager expertise and track record is crucial.
As the market expands, real-time oversight solutions like Fund Guardian are essential to mitigate risks, ensure compliance, and enhance investor trust.
