On 7 May 2024, ESMA published its call for evidence (“CfE”) on the review of the Commission Directive (2007/16/EC) on UCITS Eligible Assets (“EAD”). The CfE follows the formal request from the European Commission (the “Commission”) in June 2023 to provide technical advice on the review of the EAD and has the potential to form the basis for significant developments in the EU’s UCITS product rules.
