Regulatory Framework

What is ELTIF 2.0?

The European Long-Term Investment Fund (ELTIF) 2.0 regulation, effective from January 2024, is the EU's landmark reform democratising access to alternative investments for retail investors.

Previously, access to venture capital and private equity was restricted to professional investors with €100K+ minimums. ELTIF 2.0 removes these barriers while maintaining strong investor protections.
