Institutional and lobbying
The association plays an active role within the legislative and institutional process by cooper- ating with the Italian supervisory and regulatory authorities in order to create a favourable en- vironment for the private equity, venture capital and private debt investment activity.
Research
The association periodically analyses the Italian private equity and private debt markets, col- lecting statistics on investment, divestment and fundraising activity as well as on the perfor- mance realised by the Italian GPs. Moreover, the association also studies in depth specific industry related issues and the relationship between demand and supply of private capital.
Information and publishing
AIFI participates and organises several meetings. Once a year the association attracts the most important Italian and foreign players in a symposium opened both to AIFI members and all those interested in the industry. Furthermore, AIFI organises meetings with Italian as well as interna- tional investors in order to promote discussions and to share views and ideas on the private eq- uity, venture capital and private debt industries’ main issues and challenges. AIFI also arranges business events on selected items and publishes research papers regarding specific topics.
Information for members
For its members AIFI provides periodic news and updates through circular letters, a monthly newsletter that collects relevant information on private capital, a quarterly flash tax & legal focused on fiscal and regulatory subjects, periodical tax & legal “pills” and a monthly newsletter in English. Moreover, AIFI elaborates, for its members, professional standards and guidelines.
