Article 11
The competent authorities of the home Member State of the AIFM may withdraw the authorisation issued to an AIFM where that AIFM: (a) does not make use of the authorisation within 12 months, expressly renounces the authorisation or has ceased the activity covered by this Directive for the preceding 6 months, unless the Member State concerned has provided for authorisation to lapse in such cases; (b) obtained the authorisation by making false statements or by any other irregular means; (c) no longer meets the conditions under which authorisation was granted; (d) no longer complies with Directive 2006/49/EC if its authorisation also covers the discretionary portfolio management service referred to in point (a) of Article 6(4) of this Directive; (e) has seriously or systematically infringed the provisions adopted pursuant to this Directive; or (f) falls within any of the cases where national law, in respect of matters outside the scope of this Directive, provides for withdrawal.
