The map of rules

Fund regulation is not a list, it is a web. AIFMD II alone reaches into loan origination, delegation, liquidity management and leverage — and those same concepts thread through UCITS, ELTIF and every Channel Islands regime, so a change in one corner moves obligations in another. Reading the rules page by page hides exactly those connections.

This map makes the web visible. Every dot below is something this site tracks — a regime or instrument, a practical guide, or a concept from the glossary — and every line means the two actually reference each other on our pages. Click any node to see what it connects to and jump straight to the page that covers it.

How to read it

Node size is connectedness: the bigger the dot, the more pages and concepts it touches. Dark nodes are the instruments and regimes themselves, teal nodes are our living guides and trackers, amber nodes are concepts from the glossary. The map grows on its own — every new page the library adds arrives here with its connections on the next build, because the edges are read out of the pages rather than drawn by hand.

The gotcha: the biggest node is not where the risk sits. A heavily connected concept like the depositary is well-mapped territory; the operational traps usually hide on the sparsely connected edge of the map — the single line between two regimes nobody reads side by side. That is the line worth clicking.
