Finance Liechtenstein published a magazine feature with David Gamper, Managing Director of the Liechtenstein Investment Funds Association, explaining why demand for customised investment funds remains strong among families and family offices and why Liechtenstein continues to be used as a fund domicile for long-term wealth structuring. The article points to administrative outsourcing to fund management companies, including accounting, performance calculation and reporting, as a route to lower costs and consolidated global oversight while still allowing multiple asset managers and broad asset-class flexibility. It also emphasises EU-aligned investor protection through Liechtenstein’s European Economic Area participation, supervision by the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority with regular audits, and the FMA’s membership in the European Securities and Markets Authority. On tax, it describes white label funds as enabling tailoring to investors’ country-of-residence tax positions, with taxation at the investor’s domicile and no taxation at fund level in Liechtenstein, and notes structural options such as multiple share classes with or without voting rights and use in succession planning. The piece adds that Liechtenstein’s alternative investment fund regime has no statutory diversification requirements, supporting concentrated holdings such as a single company.
