The Basics
RAIFs, or Reserved Alternative Investment Fund, offer flexibility and efficiency in structuring and managing alternative investments.
RAIFs were introduced in 2016 by the Luxembourg government to remove a double layer of supervision from alternative investment funds. These funds can invest in a wide range of assets, such as real estate, private equity, infrastructure and debt.
RAIFs can be incorporated under various corporate structures and may be open-ended or close-ended funds.
