The Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA) recently announced the withdrawal of the temporary allowance for operator letters in place of notarised affidavits for fund registration and licensing applications. This measure, introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, ceased on 15 October 2025.
From this date, all applications under the Mutual Funds Act (2025 Revision) and Private Funds Act (2025 Revision) must include duly notarised affidavits, as per standard requirements. Operator letters will no longer be accepted.
Industry participants are urged to ensure compliance with these requirements to avoid processing delays.
