EFAMA welcomes the opportunity to comment on the Revised Discussion Draft "BEPS Action 6: Prevent Treaty Abuse" issued on 22 May 2015.

EFAMA is grateful for the opportunity to comment on the new OECD Public Discussion Draft on BEPS Action 6 and the treaty entitlement of non-CIV funds Discussion Draft on non-CIV examples. In addition EFAMA would like to make positive use of this opportunity and comment as well on the general situation of CIVs as well as of Non-CIVs against the background of the BEPS Action 6 implementation.

EFAMA welcomes the consultation that the European Commission launched on the cross-border distribution of different types of investment funds (AIFs, UCITS, EuVECA/EuSEF, and ELTIF) and the opportunity to respond as to the remaining barriers to marketing funds across the EU single market, as well as the ways to eliminate them. We, also, fully share the goal of the European Commission in seeking further ways to deepen the Single Market for investment funds.
