Article 10U.K.
1.At all times, managers of qualifying venture capital funds shall have sufficient own funds and shall use adequate and appropriate human and technical resources as necessary for the proper management of the qualifying venture capital funds that they manage.
[F12. Both internally managed qualifying venture capital funds and external managers of qualifying venture capital funds shall have an initial capital of EUR 50 000 .]
[F23. Own funds shall at all times amount to at least one eighth of the fixed overheads incurred by the manager in the preceding year. The competent authority of the home Member State may adjust that requirement in the event of a material change to the manager’s business since the preceding year. Where the manager of a qualifying venture capital fund has not completed a year of business, the requirement shall amount to one eighth of the fixed overheads expected in its business plan, unless the competent authority of the home Member State requires an adjustment to that plan.
4. Where the value of the qualifying venture capital funds managed by the manager exceeds EUR 250 000 000 , the manager shall provide an additional amount of own funds. That additional amount shall be equal to 0,02 % of the amount by which the total value of the qualifying venture capital funds exceeds EUR 250 000 000 .
5. The competent authority of the home Member State may authorise the manager of qualifying venture capital funds not to provide up to 50 % of the additional amount of own funds referred to in paragraph 4 if that manager benefits from a guarantee for the same amount given by a credit institution or an insurance undertaking which has its registered office in a Member State, or in a third country where it is subject to prudential rules which the competent authority of the home Member State considers to be equivalent to those laid down in Union law.
6. Own funds shall be invested in liquid assets or assets readily convertible to cash in the short term and shall not include speculative positions.]
