ANTI-FRAUD POLICY

With the present policy Visolis Fund Trust ( “Visolis” or “Fund”) is defined the fraud prevention policy. 

​

FRAUD PREVENTION POLICY

Fraud occurs whenever a person brings about a malicious behavior designed to create his own economic advantage and to disadvantage an investor. Therefore it is considered that the cases of fraud may derive from the following factors, for which are provided the following safeguards, without prejudice to the fact that the Fund will report to the Judicial Authority any situation susceptible to integrate the details of a fraud. 

​

Fraud related to the bidder’s behavior

The Fund believes that the greater risk of fraud derives from the publication of false or incomplete information provided by the subjects qualifying as bidders (the "Offerors") in accordance with Article 2, paragraph 1, letter c) of CONSOB Regulation No. 18592 of June 26, 2013. The Fund, during the phase of investment selection, formally verifies the proposals of the bidders, aimed at evaluating the accuracy, completeness and transparency of the information provided during the preparation of the investments for the purpose of collection, possibly using of the work of external collaborators to confirm the actual. 

​

Fraud related to financial transactions

The services relating to the execution of the investment orders on the fund and of the acceptance to the risk capital subscriptions, will be managed by the depositary bank with which the fund has drawn an operating agreement (the "Bank"). Therefore, in this context are applied all anti-intrusion measures implemented by the Bank.

​

Fraud related to the publication of information  material

The fund publishes its investments on its portal (the "Portal") only after having done a careful evaluation of the investment projects, the benefit-risk ratio, the business plan and the lawfulness of the same. This allows the fund to carry out a correct and exact control on the contents of its investments, fully verifying the real prospects of success, highlighting in detail the positive and negative aspects of the investment. At the same time, checks are done on the lawfulness and truthfulness of the documents provided during the selection process. This verification will allow the investor to have an exact picture of the project in which he invests his savings, while avoiding the risks of fraud.

For example, organizational and administrative mechanisms to protect customers' interests. A fundamental element of this policy is that people who perform various commercial activities involving a conflict of interests must carry out these activities independently of each other. These policies are subject to supervision and continuous review by the C.d.A. of Visolis Fund Trust and the local superior management.

​If necessary, the Visolis Fund Trust maintains at least the following procedures to be chased, and the following measures to be taken:

  • Effective procedures to prevent or control the exchange of information between responsible persons committed to activities that involve a risk of conflict of interest, in the event that the exchange of information may damage the interests of one or more customers;

  • Separate supervision of the responsible persons whose main functions involve the performance of activities or the supply of services on behalf or in favor of customers, whose interests may be conflicting or in any case who represent different interests that may conflict;

  • The elimination of any potential direct links between the remuneration of the persons responsible mainly committed to an activity and the remuneration of, or the income produced by, other responsible persons engaged mainly in another activity, where conflicts of interest may arise in relation to these activities;

  • Measures to prevent or limit the possibility that a person exercises improper influence on the way in which a responsible person performs investment or ancillary services or activities;

In some cases, the Visolis Fund Trust procedures and controls may not be enough to guarantee that a potential conflict of interest does not harm the interest of a particular customer. In the event that the organizational or administrative mechanisms introduced by the Visolis Fund Trust to prevent conflicts of interest from negatively affecting the customer’s interests, are not enough to guarantee with reasonable certainty to prevent the risks for the customer’s interests to be damaged.
