Private equity managers cite regulatory fragmentation as key structuring factor
New research from asset services provider Ocorian indicates that regulatory fragmentation is a significant factor in how private equity fund managers structure their funds. The study surveyed managers across the U.S. and Europe who collectively oversee $3.511 trillion in assets under management.
According to the findings, 77% of respondents view regulatory considerations as a significant but manageable factor, while 7% consider them a primary constraint. Notably, 55% of managers identified North America as the region posing the greatest regulatory complexity, surpassing Europe, which was cited by 38% of respondents.
Regulatory fragmentation was identified as a major underestimated risk, with 44% of participants believing the market is underestimating its impact. The study also highlighted regional avoidance: 55% of respondents have avoided Latin America due to complexity, and 46% have found it challenging to structure funds in Europe, excluding the United Kingdom.
