Introduction to Alternative Investment Funds

Alternative investment funds (AIFs) are specialized investment vehicles designed to pool resources from investors to invest in a diverse array of assets, including private equity, venture capital, and real estate. These funds are typically managed by global asset managers and alternative investment managers who aim to raise capital from European investors and other professional investors. The role of the alternative investment fund manager (AIFM) is crucial in overseeing the AIF, ensuring it adheres to relevant regulations such as the Alternative Investment Fund Manager Directive (AIFMD). AIFM services, encompassing portfolio management, risk management, and other operational duties, are vital for the successful operation and compliance of AIFs, ultimately driving their success and growth.

Streamlining AIFMD Compliance

The AIFMD is a European Union (EU) regulation, requires EU domiciled AIFs to appoint an Alternative Investment Fund Manager. While there’s no getting around this requirement, Alter Domus can make the process less onerous and reduce time to market through our third-party AIFM services.

Unlock access to European investors with AIFM Services

A passport to one of the world’s largest and most successful markets opens up a world of new investment opportunities. Our experts provide a comprehensive slate of services, from turnkey pre-launch to day-to-day marketing, to help you reach target EU investors no matter where you are.

What our Clients say:

Why Transfer Pricing is critical for Alternatives

Transfer pricing obligations affect every stage of the investment lifecycle. From fund structuring and refinancing to acquisitions and exits, documentation must not only comply with OECD BEPS rules but also withstand scrutiny from local tax authorities.

Without the right support, managers face:

  • Costly penalties and adjustments if reports are incomplete or late
  • Transaction delays when documentation is missing at closing
  • Reduced investor returns from inefficient structures or incorrect valuations

Why Partner with Alter Domus

Alter Domus combines deep technical knowledge with practical delivery tailored to the needs of alternative investments:

  • Specialized Expertise: team dedicated exclusively to alternatives, ensuring strategies are designed for real estate, private equity, private credit, and debt structures.
  • Proven Delivery: Reports delivered within three weeks as standard, with urgent cases completed in as little as 24–48 hours, giving managers confidence that deadlines won’t derail critical transactions.
  • Trusted Partnerships: Collaboration with a network of leading tax law firms across Europe to provide full compliance coverage across jurisdictions.
  • Transparent Pricing: Predictable fee structures with no hidden costs, so managers can budget with certainty.

Our transfer pricing services are designed around the real needs of alternative investment managers. Focused on the most critical compliance requirements, we provide specialized solutions that keep structures compliant, transactions efficient, and stakeholders confident.

When to Engage Us

Clients gain the most value from our transfer pricing expertise when we are involved early in the investment cycle. Engaging us before transactions are finalized allows structures to be set up on solid ground, and avoids the challenges of retroactive justification.

Acquisitions or divestments

Providing defensible documentation to support due diligence and smooth closing.

Loan refinancing

Ensuring financing terms align with market standards

Restructuring

Guiding efficient reorganizations across multiple jurisdictions.

Cross-border distributions

Minimizing risks from complex, multi-country transactions.

Audit preparation

Delivering robust reports that meet regulator and auditor review

FAQs

Yes. Fund administration does not replace transfer pricing compliance. Regulators require standalone transfer pricing documentation to demonstrate compliance with OECD and local rules. Many mangers assume their administrator covers this, but it is a separate obligation. Alter Domus provides transfer pricing reports on a standalone basis, so managers can stay compliant without changing or restructuring their existing administration setup.

Transfer pricing reports are normally completed within three weeks, depending on the complexity of the structure and the availability of information. At Alter Domus, our dedicated team can accelerate delivery when deadlines are tight, ensuring compliance without compromising quality.

European regulators require funds with cross-border operations to maintain OECD-compliant transfer pricing documentations, typically including a master file and local files, as well as support for intercompany financing arrangements. These obligations apply regardless of who administers the fund. At Alter Domus, we prepare this documentation in line with BEPS standards and tailor it to fund structures, including SPVs, so that it withstands both local audits and investor scrutiny.
