The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) entered into effect in the EU in 2018. This stringent and complex data privacy and security law includes hundreds of new requirements for organizations not only in Europe, but around the world as long as they target or collect data related to people in the EU. As an asset manager, investment manager or fund company, you will typically hold and use personal data of EU citizens – e.g. of investors within the EU. What do you need to know about GDPR?

This webinar will help you understand how GDPR applies specifically to fund industry in Europe.
