LUXEMBOURG/IRELAND – Gartmore Investment Management’s Luxembourg domiciled SICAV range of funds has gained registration from the Irish authorities to begin marketing in Ireland.

The fund range, which was launched last year, is now approved in Finland, Austria, Sweden, Belgium and Germany and further applications in other European countries are in progress.

Says Patrick Van de Steen, head of Gartmore’s continental Europe retail business: “This new registration is a further step towards becoming a partner to pan-European distributors.”
