BAKGRUNN (fra kommisjonsforordningen)
(1) The exchange of information between competent authorities is part of the administrative procedures in relation to the notifications of alternative investment funds managers (AIFMs) wishing to carry out marketing or management activities, to provide services or to establish a branch in host Member States. To close those administrative procedures in a smooth, fast, unbureaucratic, and reliable way, it is necessary to specify and harmonise the exchange of information between competent authorities by the development of harmonised forms, templates, cooperation procedures and the implementation of communication by electronic means.
(2) To transmit the huge amount of information, sent and received in regard of the notifications between the Member States, without loss of time and in a reliable, cost-efficient and unbureaucratic manner, it is essential that the information concerned is provided by electronic means. While such information might be provided by email, it should be possible to provide that information also by other, potentially more advanced electronic technology. It is therefore necessary to set out a detailed procedure for those electronic transmissions and for dealing with technical problems that might occur in the process of the transmission of the information between the competent authorities.
(3) The provisions in this Regulation are closely linked since they deal with the form and content of the information to be exchanged between AIFMs and the national competent authorities of home and host Member States where the AIFM intends to provide cross-border services. To ensure coherence between those provisions, which should enter into force at the same time, and to facilitate a comprehensive view and efficient access for AIFMs and national competent authorities, it is appropriate to include them in a single regulation.
(4) This Regulation is based on the draft implementing technical standards submitted to the Commission by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA).
(5) ESMA has conducted open public consultations on the provisions of the draft implementing technical standards on which this Regulation is based relating to the template notification letters for the marketing and the management of alternative investment funds (AIFs) in host Member States, analysed the potential related costs and benefits and requested the advice of the Securities and Markets Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2).
(6) To enable AIFMs and competent authorities to adapt to the new requirements laid down in this Regulation, it is appropriate to defer its application,
