Episode 8: AIFMD 2.0 - Why April 2026 Will Make or Break Your Fund

Tuesday, September 9, 2025 • Duration 39:00

Think AIFMD 2.0 is just another regulatory update? You're wrong!AIFMD 2.0 isn't a minor regulatory tweak—it's the biggest revamp since 2011, and loan originators may need to overhaul their business model In this episode of GRC in Focus, host Asad Bukhory unpacks AIFMD 2.0's impact with just eight months until the April 16, 2026 go-live date. Asad explains how the new loan origination regime will impact "originate-to-distribute" strategies, forcing managers to choose between capital-draining risk retention or complete business model pivots. He reveals why every open-ended fund manager must now weaponise liquidity management tools or face investor exodus during the next crisis.Key Topics Covered:

The loan origination "capital trap" - 5% risk retention economics
Mandatory liquidity management tools for all open-ended AIFs
Enhanced substance requirements and delegation oversight
EU-UK regulatory divergence post-Brexit
Changes to the "originate-to-distribute" strategies
Swing pricing vs. dual pricing mechanics
Enhanced reporting and disclosure burdens

This episode provides a framework for navigating AIFMD 2.0's minefield. A must listen for AIFMs, loan originators, and anyone who thinks they can wait until 2026 to start planning.

Episode 7: The Delegation Death Trap - Why "Set It and Forget It" Will Destroy Your Fund

Tuesday, August 26, 2025 • Duration 36:46

Signing an outsourcing agreement is just the beginning - the FCA's February 2025 portfolio letter changes everything about delegation oversight.In this critical episode of GRC in Focus, host Asad Bukhory delivers a wake-up call to investment firms treating delegation as abdication. With the FCA's February 2025 portfolio letter identifying systematic deficiencies across £3 trillion in private assets, the message is clear: delegation oversight failures can destroy your fund, your reputation, and your regulatory standing. Asad exposes the "liability funnel" - regardless of delegation chains. He breaks down why traditional due diligence creates "oversight asymmetries" and explains why the convergence of new regulations - Consumer Duty, anti-greenwashing rules, operational resilience requirements, and DORA - demands sophisticated, integrated oversight frameworks. From NAV calculation governance to ESG substantiation, from cyber resilience to cross-border enforcement challenges, this episode provides the practical roadmap for building delegation oversight that actually works. Essential listening for ACDs, AIFMs, MiFID firms, and anyone who believes their job ends when the outsourcing contract is signed.
