Luxembourg
As the second largest hub for funds after New York, Luxembourg is the key gateway to Europe and the world. As of September 2023, the Luxembourg’s AuM totaled at 5.12 trillion EUR of which 2.8 trillion EUR are in UCITS ESG type of strategies, leaving it the highest-ranked financial centre for green finance in the EU. The Luxembourg Green Exchange LGX lists almost half of the world’s green bond volume and a third of sustainable and social bonds. As a result, Luxembourg offers expertise along the entire value chain for sustainable fund and asset structuring. This explains LEIW Management’s strategic decision to establish in Luxembourg, including the full front office decision-making capacities, since the management of complexities around sustainable finance private assets necessitates a closely knit collaboration between all the actors involved in the success of this endeavour.
In the heart of Europe, and investments
Further, Luxembourg’s regulatory setup provides clarity, predictability, and stability for fund managers and investors, and the regulator’s engaging openness is a key advantage.
Together with the depth of fund infrastructure and expertise, Luxembourg’s financial market allows for innovative and flexible investment solutions, enabling us to realise our vision of the smartest choice in profitable conscientious finance. Situated right at the heart of Europe, Luxembourg has access to a vast market of over 500 million consumers, but also facilitates efficient operations by profiting from state-of-the-art technology provided in the financial centres around Europe. It also enhances connectivity with global investors and thereby allows the technological establishment of secondary market facilities in private assets.
A market that allows us to thrive
Luxembourg’s close ecosystem allows for faster collaboration and knowledge sharing among industry professionals. Engaging with this ecosystem opens doors to partnerships, co-investment opportunities, and potential sources of capital. This is of special importance when it comes to the European market for ESG-related assets, where Luxembourg has emerged as a leader, given its deep network of experts in the field.
All of the above will allow the democratization of our investment strategies in the future, bringing sustainable alternative assets to a broader group of investors. By leveraging Luxembourg’s advantages, LEIW is positioned to realise our vision of becoming Europe’s preferred investment partner in sustainable finance. Clean, conscious and tech-savvy.
