MODIFIED +167 −9 Art. 4 Use of credit ratings

applies from: unknown (the text changed beyond its dates, so no date that moved can be read as the application date)

dates added to the text: 2011-06-08

Sources disagree — the text comparison and the amending act's instructions found this change; the EU's own amendment metadata does not list it. All are shown; none is overruled.

The list of entities in paragraph 1 now specifies that alternative investment funds are those defined in Directive 2011/61/EU of 8 June 2011 on Alternative Investment Fund Managers, a definitional reference not present in the earlier text.

A minor wording change also appears earlier in the same paragraph, where the phrase describing the business covered by the 1973 insurance directive is rendered slightly differently between the two versions.
