Question

Should UCITS that wish to market several investment compartments of the same UCITS undertake different notification procedures via their competent authority?

Answer

[ESMA 34-43-392 UCITS Q&A, section 4, Q&A 1b] No. UCITS can undertake a single notification procedure via their competent authority when they wish to market several investment compartments of the same UCITS in a Member State. Indeed, according to the Annex I of the Commission Regulation 584/2010, UCITS may indicate names of different investment compartments in the notification letter they transmit to their competent authority pursuant to Article 93(1) of Directive 2009/65/EC.
