IRELAND: CBI consultation on macroprudential limits on leverage for Irish-authorised property funds

Thursday November 25 2021

The Central Bank of Ireland has published a consultation on a proposal to introduce macroprudential limits on leverage and to provide Guidance to limit liquidity mismatch for Irish-authorised property funds (subject to AIFMD).

The policy aims to safeguard the resilience of Irish property funds so that the sector is better able to absorb, rather than amplify, adverse shocks in future times of stress. This in turn will better equip the sector to continue to serve its purpose as a valuable and sustainable source of funding for economic activity.

The consultation is open to everyone and the CBI are seeking views and feedback from all relevant stakeholders on the proposed measures.

The public consultation process will be open for submissions via the CBI online response form until Friday, 18 February 2022.
