76.—(1) In this regulation—
“the new activity” means the activity specified in article 51ZD of the Regulated Activities Order (acting as trustee or depositary of an AIF) M1;
“the old activity” means the activity of acting as trustee of an authorised unit trust scheme, acting as the depositary of an authorised contractual scheme or acting as the depositary of an open-ended investment company, as specified in article 51(1)(b), (bb) or (c) of the Regulated Activities Order as it was in force immediately before 22nd July 2013 M2;
“the relevant date” in respect of a person means the earlier of—
the date on which the FCA or PRA notifies the person that their application for Part 4A permission to carry on the new activity has been determined; or
22nd July 2014.
(2) Section 20(1) and (1A) M3 of the Act (authorised persons acting without permission) does not apply to an authorised person who carries on the new activity before the relevant date without a Part 4A permission to carry on that activity if the person meets condition A and condition B.
(3) Condition A is that the person—
(a)carries on the activity for an AIF that is not an authorised AIF; or
(b)has a Part 4A permission to carry on the old activity (see paragraph (5)).
(4) Condition B is that the person—
(a)meets the requirements for appointment as a depositary imposed by implementing provisions relating to Article 21.3 of the directive; and
(b)has its registered office or has established a branch in the United Kingdom.
(5) If a person has a Part 4A permission to carry on the old activity immediately before 22nd July 2013 and that person continues to carry on that activity on or after 22nd July 2013, the amendments to other enactments made by these Regulations which relate to removal from the Regulated Activities Order of the specification of the old activity do not apply in respect of that person until the relevant date.
(6) Article 42A of the Regulated Activities Order (depositaries of UCITS and AIFs) M4 applies to a person who—
(a)is carrying on the new activity without a Part 4A permission to carry on that activity but who, pursuant to paragraph (2), is not to be taken to have contravened a requirement, and
(b)does not have a Part 4A permission to carry on the regulated activity specified in article 40 of the Regulated Activities Order (safeguarding and administering investments),
as it does to a person who has a Part 4A permission to carry on the new activity.
(7) A person who carries on the new activity and who, pursuant to paragraph (2), need not have a Part 4A permission to carry on that activity, must comply with all other implementing provisions in respect of that activity that would apply if the person had such a Part 4A permission.]
