Details
The “Brexit” decision created uncertainty, which will be ongoing throughout the negotiation process, in global financial markets and may directly affect U.S. investment companies. Investment companies that invest in the UK and international markets face a new category of risk. Fund directors, in turn, must address these risks in the context of ongoing Brexit negotiations, likely to last for two years and perhaps beyond. These new potential risks, or perhaps market opportunities, may involve currency exposure, portfolio investments, liquidity and disclosure obligations.These issues, in turn, present oversight challenges for fund directors.
