Question
When the marketing of an AIF or a UCITS is not performed by the AIFM or UCITS management company but by a third party distributor, does the responsibility for ensuring that marketing communications comply with the requirements set out in Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) 2019/1156 lie with the AIFM or the UCITS management company where there is a contractual relationship between the AIFM or the UCITS management company and the third party distributor? Conversely, does the responsibility for ensuring that marketing communications comply with the requirements set out in Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) 2019/1156 still lie with the AIFM or the UCITS management company in case there is no contractual relationship with the third party distributor?
