According to research by RBC Dexia Investor Services, several European markets missed the deadline to implement the 1July UCITS IV Directive. They include: Belgium, France, Italy, Spain and Switzerland. The first three countries listed have yet to even confirm the legal process to introduce the new directive, which contains several new provisions aimed at making the UCITS structure more efficient, particularly with respect to cross-border selling. Luxembourg became the first country to introduce the Directive into law back in December. Germany, Ireland and the UK have also successfully implemented it.
