Dealing

Dealings in the Fund normally take place every business day between 9.00am and the Valuation Point that day - usually 4.30pm.

The minimum initial and subsequent investment into the Fund is £1,000. However, this amount may be waived by the Manager at any time.

The Fund deals on a forward pricing basis. Thus, when submitting an instruction to deal, investors will not know the price at which their transaction will be effected.

Holders can normally realise all or part of their holdings of units on any business day between 9.00am and the Valuation Point that day - normally 4.30pm. The Manager reserves the right to refuse partial redemptions of less than £1,000.

To enable us to make settlement payments for realisations by electronic transfer, we require unitholders to submit their full bank account details. The best way to do this is to download and complete the Bank Account Notification Form which is available from our Literature Library or below.

There are no entry or exit charges for the Fund.

The spread between the buying price and the selling price reflects the underlying spread on the portfolio of investments. This spread can therefore fluctuate and the current dealing spread is shown on the Latest Prices page.

Detailed information on the Fund's charges is set out on the Fund Charges page.
