Denne udvidelse af tilladte investeringer omfatter ikke blot pengemarkedsinstrumenter, bankindskud, andele i investeringsinstitutter og andre kollektive investeringsselskaber. Investeringsinstitutterne kan nu også lade finansielle derivatinstrumenter indgå i deres generelle investeringspolitik, og ikke kun til dækningsformål.
This extension of permissible investments does not only include money market instruments, bank deposits, units of UCITS and other collective investments undertakings: UCITS are now also permitted to employ financial derivative instruments as part of their general investment policy, and not only for the purposes of hedging positions.
