Unlocking Malta’s Structuring Toolkit: NPIFs and Partnership Structures
MASA, in collaboration with FinanceMalta, is pleased to invite you to Unlocking Malta's Structuring Toolkit — a half-day briefing designed for locally based companies and professionals operating across the funds and wealth management sectors. Against an evolving regulatory and competitive landscape, selecting the right structuring solution has become increasingly important. For fund managers, advisers and financial services firms considering their next strategic move, understanding the available structures — and how best to leverage them — can make a meaningful difference to efficiency, flexibility and long-term growth. This practical and insightful session will provide an overview of the current state of Malta's funds landscape, while exploring the structuring options available to market participants, including NPIFs, partnerships, securitisation and alternative structures . Led by experienced practitioners, advisers and the regulator, the session provides a practical, commercially focused and regulator-aware perspective on how these structures work, when they may be appropriate, and how Malta can strengthen its position as a competitive and internationally recognised financial services jurisdiction. Join us to explore Malta's structuring toolkit, gain practical insights from industry experts, and identify opportunities to position your business for its next stage of growth.
