IRELAND: Central Bank publishes updated guide on regulatory reporting requirements for Irish funds

Wednesday April 8 2015

The Central Bank of Ireland has published an updated guide on regulatory reporting requirements of Irish authorised investment funds.

The purpose of the guidance note is to provide information and direction to the investment funds’ Board of Directors/Management Company/AIF Management Company/General Partner, as appropriate, on the reporting requirements relating to the extension of the Central Bank of Ireland’s Online Reporting System (“ONR System”) to investment funds.

A return generally involves the user completing a Return Form (questionnaire) and attaching supporting document(s). The specifics of each Return Form and required supporting document(s) are outlined in the document.

The guide concerns information on the following:

• the ONR system
• completing return forms
• termination accounts
• dormant/not launched sub-funds
• financial statements – annual and interim
• annual sub-fund profile
• UCITS annual update of Key Investor Information Document
• UCITS annual financial derivative instrument return
• Investment funds’ regulatory report
• Depositary regulatory report
• Naming convention for file uploads
• Reporting convention for documents
