Public Affairs Committee

Goal

To guide the development and implementation of a public affairs programme that ensures European regulators and policymakers are aware of the contribution and importance of non-listed real estate investment to economic growth and job creation in Europe. The committee also actively supports the engagement of the INREV public affairs team in Brussels with stakeholders to promote the interests of the industry in regulatory consultations and policy initiatives.

Key Objectives

• Regulatory and policy initiatives - monitor and provide input on proposed regulations and policy initiatives to promote the interests of the industry in public consultations; current initiatives include SFDR, EU Taxonomy, AIFMD Review along with UK SDR and Funds Review.
• Training and events - support INREV in organising and providing expert content for the Foundation, Risk Management, Investor Relations and
• Communication and Fund Structuring: Tax and Legal courses and INREV events that include regulatory-related topics.
• Information - keep INREV members up to date on important regulatory developments, for example through the Tax & Regulations Guide, snapshots, monthly online Briefings, articles and speaking at events.
• Know-how - assess the impact of proposed and existing regulations to keep INREV members informed of their business impacts and act as a platform to share expertise with national and EU regulators.

Committee members are selected on the basis of their knowledge of the non-listed real estate industry and European regulations and policy initiatives impacting it; this expertise enables INREV to educate and inform its members as well as European policy makers, as they develop proposed regulations that could impact the non-listed real estate funds industry.
