On 5th October 2015, the Central Bank published the Seventh Edition of the UCITS Q&A. Question ID 1016 has been added. This question concerns how the identifier “UCITS ETF” should be applied when an umbrella UCITS has some sub-funds which are UCITS ETFs and some which are not?

Additionally, ID 1017 has been added regarding under what circumstances the right to deal directly with the UCITS ETF arise?

Questions ID 1007 and ID1009 are no longer relevant and have been deleted.

Question ID 1008 has been re-written to reference the Central Bank UCITS Regulations 2015. The question now inquires as to whether in the Regulation, is the reference to “revenue”, applicable only to revenue from securities lending arrangements and repurchase/reverse repurchase agreements?
