Setting up your Private Equity and Venture Capital in the Netherlands

For emerging fund managers, choosing a fund domicile is no longer merely a back-office decision. It is a strategic choice that impacts fundraising, regulatory positioning, operational efficiency and long-term growth.

The Netherlands has developed into one of Europe’s most pragmatic and internationally oriented jurisdictions for private equity and venture capital funds. In particular, managers operating under the AIFMD light regime, with assets under management below EUR 500 million, benefit from a clear and proportionate regulatory framework combined with a strong professional ecosystem.

In collaboration with Van Campen Liem, TARU and the Nederlandse Vereniging van Participatiemaatschappijen, we have prepared a free whitepaper that outlines the key considerations for fund managers looking to establish a fund in the Netherlands.

What you will find in the whitepaper

• Why the Netherlands offers regulatory clarity without unnecessary burden
• How EU and non EU managers can structure their funds efficiently
• What the AIFMD light regime means in practice
• When and how to scale to a EuVECA structure or full AIFM authorisation
• Tax and structuring options commonly used by PE and VC managers

The whitepaper provides practical guidance and strategic insights for first-time and experienced managers alike.
