Launch of new Code of Practice for UK unlisted funds sector

The Association of Real Estate Funds announced on March 20 the launch of the 2007 Aref Code of Practice to govern the £40 billion, in 60 funds, that its members manage. The code was officially launched to its members on March 22.

The new code was introduced to reflect changes in the regulation and accounting practice and to reflect Aref’s increasingly wide membership base. The code provides investors with a level of disclosure across key areas that are comparable with their publicly quoted counterparts. The aim of the code is to ensure that real estate funds, their decisions, their investors and fund managers are provided with transparency, consistency and comparability between funds, accountability, standards of best practice and consistent disclosure across funds.
