SUB-FUND DESCRIPTIONS
Introduction to the Sub-Funds
All of the sub-funds described here are part of Amundi Funds, a SICAV that functions as an umbrella structure. The SICAV exists to offer investors a range
of sub-funds with different objectives and strategies, and to manage the assets of these sub-funds for the benefit of investors.
For each sub-fund, the specific investment objectives and the main securities it may invest in, along with other key characteristics, are described in this
section. In addition, all sub-funds are subject to the general investment policies and restrictions that begin on page 191.
The board of the SICAV has overall responsibility for the SICAV’s business operations and its investment activities, including the investment activities of all
of the sub-funds. The board has delegated the day-to-day management of the sub-funds to the Management Company, which in turn has delegated some
of its responsibilities to a number of investment managers and other service providers.
The board retains supervisory approval and control over the Management Company. More information about the SICAV, the board, the Management
Company and the service providers begins on page 216.
For information on fees and expenses you may have to pay in connection with your investment, consult the following:
• Maximum fees for purchase, switching and redeeming shares: this section (main classes) and “Investing in the Sub-funds” section (all families of classes).
• Maximum annual fees deducted from your investment: this section (main classes).
• Recent actual expenses: the applicable KIID or the SICAV’s most recent shareholder report.
• Fees for currency conversions, bank transactions, and investment advice: your financial advisor, the transfer agent (page 222) or other service providers,

Protection feature
Sub-Fund shareholders benefit from a daily protection representing 90%
of the highest-ever NAV recorded from 5 June 2020 regardless of their
subscription date,
When the protection feature is triggered, the board requests the
guarantor to pay to the Sub-Fund the relevant amount due. In the event
of a change in laws and regulations (such as new financial or tax
obligations for the Sub-Fund or the guarantor), the guarantor is entitled
to decrease the relevant amount due in proportion to the decrease of the
NAV per share. In such a case, shareholders will be duly informed.
This protection applies to the highest-ever NAV price recorded from 5
June 2020 rounded down to the second decimal.
The protection is granted by the guarantor to the Sub-Fund and provided
for a renewed contract period of five years (beginning from 5 June 2020).
This protection subsequently renews automatically for 1-year contract
periods. The guarantor can cease offering the protection feature under
any of the following circumstances:
• at the end of any contract period with a 3-month notice
• upon a change of investment manager or investment policy that does
not receive the prior consent of the guarantor
• upon liquidation of the Sub-Fund
If the Sub-Fund becomes fully invested in the conservative component,
the board may decide to suspend the issuance of new shares and also
may either change the protection feature or liquidate the Sub-Fund.
In case of termination or change of the protection feature, shareholders
will receive at least one month’s advance notice, during which they are
able to redeem shares while the protection feature is still in place. In case
of liquidation, shareholders are able to redeem shares while still
benefiting from the protection feature until the effective liquidation of the
Sub-Fund.

NOTES ON SUB-FUND COSTS
General The charges you pay as an investor in the sub-fund go to cover sub-fund operating costs, including marketing and distribution costs. These
ongoing charges reduce the performance of your investment.
One-off charges taken before or after you invest These are deducted from your investment or your redemption proceeds, and are paid to sales
agents and authorised intermediaries. The fees shown are maximums. To find out the actual fee for a transaction, contact your financial adviser or the
transfer agent (see page 222).
Charges taken from the sub-fund over a year These charges are the same for all shareholders of a given share class.
Performance fee This fee is charged only when a share class of a sub-fund outperforms its stated performance fee reference indicator over the
performance fee measurement period (and, in the case of Class A3 Shares, higher than their respective High Water Mark). The fee is equal to the
performance fee percentage (as stated for each sub-fund and share class) multiplied by the amount of the outperformance.
The reference indicator is, in principle, a replica of the fund except that its portfolio performance is equal to the benchmark performance over the performance
fee measurement period.
A High Water Mark is defined as the highest NAV per Share in any preceding period in respect of which a performance fee for the relvant Share was
calculated and paid.
One of the two following performance fee measurement periods may apply :
the 1/3 year(s) period
the standard period is 12 months. If any performance fee is due at the end of a measurement period, the fee is paid and a new measurement period
begins. If no fee is due at the end of a measurement period, the period is extended to include a second 12-month period. If, at the end of this second
period there is still no performance fee due, the period can be extended to include a third 12-month period (total of 36 months). After three periods, a new
measurement period begins, regardless of whether any performance fee is due or not. All share classes of a sub-fund will have the same performance
fee measurement period.
The 1 year period
the period is 12 months and begins, regardless of whether any performance fee was due or not at the end of the preceding period.
The performance fee accrues daily as part of the NAV calculation. During the measurement period, previously accrued fees are canceled out by any
subsequent underperformance. However, when distributions or redemption proceeds are paid out during a performance fee period, any performance fee
that has accrued as of that point is considered earned. Thus if you redeem your shares or receive a cash distribution when there is an accrued performance
fee, your share of the accrued fee will be deducted from the amount you receive. The accrued performance fee is paid to the Management Company at
the end of the performance period.
Because different share classes may have different NAVs, the actual performance fees paid may vary by share class. For distributing shares, any
distributions paid out are counted as part of performance for purposes of performance fee calculation.

performance is assessed by comparison with the average performance
of its industry, through the three ESG dimensions:
1. Environmental dimension: this examines issuers’ ability to
control their direct and indirect environmental impact, by
limiting their energy consumption, reducing their greenhouse
emissions, fighting resource depletion and protecting
biodiversity. It also judges an issuer’s contribution to building
a positive ecology in the territories in which it operates.
2. Social dimension: this measures how an issuer operates on
two distinct concepts: the issuer’s strategy to develop its
human capital and the respect of human rights in general. The
social dimension also assesses the contribution of the issuer
to the stability of the societies where it operates.
3. Governance dimension: This assesses capability of issuer’s
management to set a collaborative process involving all
stakeholders, to ensure it will meet its objectives and generate
value over the long-term.

for example based on ESG scores, are determined separately for each

issue new ones at lower interest rates. When this happens, the sub-fund
may have no alternative but to reinvest the money from these prepaid
securities at a lower rate of interest (“prepayment risk”).
At the same time, when interest rates rise, borrowers tend not to prepay
their low-interest mortgages. This may lead the sub-fund to receiving
below-market yields until interest rates fall or the securities mature
(“extension risk”). It can also mean that the sub-fund must either sell the
securities at a loss or forgo the opportunity to make other investments
that may turn out to have performed better.
The prices and yields of callable securities typically reflect the
assumption that they will be paid off at a certain point before maturity. If
this prepayment happens when expected, the sub-fund generally will not
suffer any adverse effects. However, if it happens substantially earlier or
later than expected, it can mean that the sub-fund effectively overpaid
for the securities. Other factors as well can affect when or if an individual
security is prepaid, including the presence or absence of any optional
redemption and mandatory prepayment features, the default rate of the
underlying assets and the nature of any turnover in the underlying
assets.
Prepayment and extension considerations can also affect the sub-fund’s
duration, increasing or decreasing sensitivity to interest rates in
undesired ways. In some circumstances, the failure of rates to rise or fall
when anticipated could cause prepayment or extension risks as well.
Real estate investments risk Real estate and related investments
can be hurt by any factor that makes an area or individual property less
valuable.
Specifically, investments in real estate holdings or related businesses or
securities (including interests in mortgages) can be hurt by natural
disasters, economic declines, overbuilding, zoning changes, tax
increases, population or lifestyle trends, environmental contamination,
defaults on mortgages, failures of management, and other factors that
may affect the market value or cash flow of the investment.
Small and mid-cap stock risk Stocks of small and mid-size
companies can be more volatile than stocks of larger companies.
Small and mid-size companies often have fewer financial resources,
shorter operating histories, and less diverse business lines, and as a
result can be at greater risk of bankruptcy or other long-term or
permanent business setbacks. Initial public offerings (IPOs) can be
highly volatile and can be hard to evaluate because of a lack of trading
history and relative lack of public information.
Volatility risk Changes in the volatility patterns of relevant markets
could create sudden and/or material changes in the sub-fund’s share
price.

MANAGEMENT AND MONITORING OF GLOBAL RISK EXPOSURE
The Management Company uses a risk-management process, approved and supervised by its board, that enables it to monitor and measure the overall
risk profile of each sub-fund. Risk calculations are performed every trading day.
There are three possible risk measurement approaches, as described below. The Management Company chooses which approach each sub-fund will
use, based on the sub-fund’s investment strategy. Where a sub-fund’s use of derivatives is mostly for hedging and efficient portfolio management purposes,
the commitment method is usually used. Where a sub-fund may use derivatives extensively, Absolute VaR is usually used, unless the sub-fund is managed
with respect to a benchmark, in which case Relative VaR is used.
The board can require a sub-fund to use an additional approach (for reference only, however, not for purposes of determining compliance), and can change
the approach if it believes the current method no longer adequately expresses the sub-fund’s overall market exposure.
Approach Description
Absolute Value-at- The sub-fund seeks to estimate the maximum loss it could experience in a month (meaning 20 trading days), and requires that
Risk (Absolute VaR) 99% of the time, the sub-fund’s worst outcome is no worse than a 20% decline in net asset value.
Relative Value-at- The sub-fund seeks to estimate the maximum loss it could experience beyond the estimated maximum loss of a benchmark
Risk (Relative VaR) (typically an appropriate market index or combination of indexes). The sub-fund calculates the amount that, with 99% certainty,
is the limit for how much the sub-fund could underperform the benchmark over a month (20 trading days). The absolute VaR of
the sub-fund cannot exceed twice that of the benchmark.
Commitment The sub-fund calculates all derivatives exposures as if they were direct investments in the underlying positions. This allows the
sub-fund to include the effects of any hedging or offsetting positions as well as positions taken for efficient portfolio
management. A sub-fund using this approach must ensure that its overall market exposure from derivatives commitments does
not exceed 210% of total assets (100% from direct investment, 100% from derivatives and 10% from borrowings).
Any sub-fund that uses the Absolute or Relative VaR approaches must also calculate its expected gross leverage, which is stated in “Sub-Fund
Descriptions”. Under certain circumstances, gross leverage might exceed this percentage. This percentage of leverage might not reflect adequately the risk
profile of the Sub-Funds and should be read in conjunction with the investment policy and objectives of the sub-funds. Gross leverage is a measure of total
derivative usage and is calculated as the sum of the notional exposure of the derivatives used, without any netting that would allow opposite positions to be
considered as cancelling each other out. As the calculation neither takes into account whether a particular derivative increases or decreases investment
risk, nor takes into account the varying sensitivities of the notional exposure of the derivatives to market movements, this may not be representative of the
actual level of investment risk within a sub-fund. The mix of derivatives and the purposes of any derivative’s use may vary with market conditions.
For purposes of compliance and risk monitoring, any derivatives embedded in transferable securities or money market instrument count as derivatives, and
any exposure to transferable securities or money market instruments gained through derivatives (except for index-based derivatives) counts as investment
in those securities or instruments.
Derivatives contracts carry significant counterparty risk. Although the sub-funds use various techniques to mitigate exposure to counterparty risk, this risk is
still present and could affect investment results. Counterparties used by the SICAV are identified in the annual report.

GENERAL INVESTMENT POLICIES
Each sub-fund, and the SICAV itself, must comply with all applicable EU and Luxembourg laws and regulations, as well as certain circulars, technical
standards and other requirements. This section presents, in synthesised form, the portfolio management requirements of the 2010 law, the main law
governing the operation of a UCITS, the MMF Regulation, governing the operation of theMMF Sub-Funds as well as the ESMA requirements for risk
monitoring and management. In case of any discrepancy the law itself (which is in French) would prevail.
In the case of any detected violation of the 2010 law or, if applicable the MMF Regulation the appropriate sub-fund(s) must comply with the relevant policies
a priority in its securities trades and management decisions, taking due account of the interests of its shareholders. Except where noted, all percentages
and restrictions apply to each sub-fund individually.
RULES RELATED TO SUB-FUNDS OTHER THAN MMF SUB-FUNDS
Permitted securities and transactions
The table below describes the types of securities and transactions that are allowable to any UCITS under the 2010 law. Most sub-funds set limits that are
more restrictive in one way or another, based on their investment objectives and strategy. No sub-fund will make use of the investments described in Rows
6 and 9 except as described in “Sub-Fund Descriptions”. A sub-fund’s usage of a security or technique must be consistent with its investment policies and
restrictions. A sub-fund that invests or is marketed in jurisdictions outside the EU may be subject to further requirements (not described here) from regulators
in those jurisdictions.
A sub-fund does not need to comply with investment limits when exercising subscription rights, so long as any violations are corrected as described above.

Portfolio rules for standard MMF Sub-Funds
A standard MMF Sub-Fund shall comply on an ongoing basis with all of the following requirements:
- its portfolio is to have at all times a WAM of no more than 6 months;
- its portfolio is to have at all times a WAL of no more than 12 months, subject to the second and third subparagraphs;
- at least 7,5 % of its assets are to be comprised of daily maturing assets, reverse repurchase agreements which can be terminated by giving prior notice
of one working day or cash which can be withdrawn by giving prior notice of one working day. A standard MMF Sub-Fund is not to acquire any asset
other than a daily maturing asset when such acquisition would result in that MMF Sub-Fund investing less than 7,5 % of its portfolio in daily maturing
assets;
- at least 15 % of its assets are to be comprised of weekly maturing assets, reverse repurchase agreements which can be terminated by giving prior
notice of five working days or cash which can be withdrawn by giving prior notice of five working days. A standard MMF Sub-Fund is not to acquire any
asset other than a weekly maturing asset when such acquisition would result in that MMF Sub-Fund investing less than 15 % of its portfolio in weekly
maturing assets;
- for the purpose of the calculation referred to above, money market instruments or units or shares of other MMFs may be included within the weekly
maturing assets up to 7,5 % of its assets provided they are able to be redeemed and settled within five working days. For the purposes of point (b) of
the first subparagraph, when calculating the WAL for securities, including structured financial instruments, a standard MMF Sub-Fund shall base the
maturity calculation on the residual maturity until the legal redemption of the instruments. However, in the event that a financial instrument embeds a
put option, a standard MMF Sub-Fund may base the maturity calculation on the exercise date of the put option instead of the residual maturity, but only
if all of the following conditions are fulfilled at all times:
- the put option is able to be freely exercised by that Standard MMF Sub-Fund at its exercise date;
- the strike price of the put option remains close to the expected value of the instrument at the exercise date;
- the investment strategy of that standard MMF Sub-Fund implies that there is a high probability that the option will be exercised at the exercise date.
By way of derogation, when calculating the WAL for securitisations and ABCPs, a standard MMF Sub-Fund may instead, in the case of amortising
instruments, base the maturity calculation on one of the following:
- the contractual amortisation profile of such instruments;
- the amortisation profile of the underlying assets from which the cash-flows for the redemption of such instruments result.
If the limits referred to above are exceeded for reasons beyond the control of the MMF Sub-Fund or as a result of the exercise of subscription or redemption
rights, that MMF Sub-Fund shall adopt as a priority objective the correction of that situation, taking due account of the interests of its Shareholders.
A standard MMF Sub-Fund shall not take the form of a public debt CNAV MMF Sub-Funds or a LVNAV MMF Sub-Funds.
Internal Credit Quality Assessment Procedure appicable tor MMF Sub-Funds
Description of the purpose of the procedure
The Management Company bears final responsibility for the establishment, implementation and constant application of an internal credit quality assessment
procedure for determining the credit quality of money markets instruments, securitisations and ABCPs which characteristics have been defined as follows:
The purpose of the internal credit quality assessment procedure is to establish the principles and methodologies that must be applied systematically to
determine the investable quality of credits for the Company, in accordance with the MMF Regulation. The procedure specifies the process by which inter
alia deteriorating credits should be monitored in order to avoid keeping credits that may default.
The internal credit quality assessment procedure has been defined by the Credit Risk Committee under the responsibility of the Management Company.
The Credit Risk Committee is held at Amundi group level and is independent from the investment teams.
An independent credit analysis and limits management team operating under the responsibility of the Management Company, at Amundi group level and
based in Paris (France) implements the methodologies that are applicable to all the key stages of the investment cycle: collection of information, analyses
and assessments of the credit quality, recommendations for validation by the Credit Risk Committee, monitoring of the credits as validated by the Committee,
199 Amundi Funds SICAV
specific monitoring of deteriorating credits and alert cases, management of cases in breach of limits.
The methodologies are reviewed and validated as many times as necessary and at least once a year, in order to adapt them to the current portfolio and to
external conditions. In case of change of methodologies, all affected internal credit assessments are reviewed as soon as possible in compliance with the
MMF Regulation.
Credits eligible for the money market funds are reviewed at least once a year, and as many times as required by developments impacting the credit quality.
Description of the inputs for the credit quality assessment
The methodologies for the assessment of the credit quality address the profitability, solvency and liquidity, based on specific quantitative and qualitative
elements that vary depending on the type of issuers (national, regional or local administrations, financial corporations, and non-financial corporations), and
the type of asset class/instrument (unrated, securitized, covered, subordinated, etc.).
The methodologies take into account quantitative and qualitative indicators that make it possible to assess in a prudent, systematic and permanent manner
the reliability of the information and the visibility in the short and medium term for the viability of the issuer (both from an intrinsic point of view and in the
context in which the issuer operates) and issuances.
The relevant criteria that are used for the analysis vary depending on the types of issuers and their sectors of activity. The following elements are taken into
account:
- quantitative indicators, such as reported operating and financial data, are analyzed not only at accounts closing, but also in trend over time, and
reassessed if necessary, in order to estimate the profitability, solvency, risk of failure and liquidity ratios that are considered to be as representative as
possible;
- qualitative indicators, such as access to funding, operational and business management, strategy, governance, reputation, are evaluated in terms of
their consistency, credibility or viability in the short and medium term as well as in the light of the macroeconomic and financial market situation;
- the short term nature of the asset/instrument.
- for structured financial instruments, the operational and counterparty risk inherent within the structured financial transaction and, in case of exposure to
securitisations, the credit risk of the issuer, the structure of the securitisation and the credit risk of the underlying assets.
The sources of information are of sufficient, multiple, up-to-date and reliable quality, based on an efficient system, consisting of:
- at the source: annual reports and publications on the issuers' sites, presentations of issuers in the context of bilateral meetings (one-on-ones) or road
shows,
- in the market: verbal or written presentations by rating agencies, internal/external sell-side research, or media/public information.
Description of the credit quality assessment methodology
The assessment of the credit quality gives rise to a recommendation indicating a level of risk-code and a limit per management desk. The risk codes
represent the varying levels of credit quality, the scale ranging from 1 (solid) to 6 (low). In case of developments and events affecting the quality of the credits
adversely to varying degree of seriousness, the risk-codes are downgraded accordingly, to the bottom of risk-code 4, risk-code 5, or 6. There is no
mechanistic reliance on external ratings. A new credit quality assessment is undertaken whenever there is a material change that could have an impact on
the existing assessment of the issuer and instrument., as further required and governed under relevant regulation issued by ESMA.
The limits are determined according to the credit quality, the size of the issuer and the share in the consolidated debt of the issuer.
The Credit Risk Committee is convened every month, and if necessary, at any time on an ad hoc basis, and validates the credit recommendations that
must be pre-validated by the Head in charge of the credit risk analysis and limits management.
The Credit Risk Committee is chaired by the Deputy General Manager of Amundi group and in his absence by the Head of Risk of Amundi group. The
Committee is also composed of the permanent members who are the Heads (and in their absence, their alternates) of the supervised business lines,
including the Money Market, Compliance and Audit business lines, and managers of the Risk Management and Credit Analysis within the Risk business
line.
Credit recommendations validated by the Credit Risk Committee are communicated to the Management Company that shall review and validate them at
adequate frequency. Divergence on any recommendation shall be communicated to the Credit Risk Committee and Head in charge of the credit risk
analysis and limits management for consideration of the Management Company’s opinion.
If case of breach, the relevant procedure applies in order to regularize the situation:
- either by an immediate sale of the assets in breach, to comply with the limits,
- either by an extinguishing management of the assets in breach which is then followed in excess, if justified,
- or by increasing the limit absorbing the excess, if justified.
These decisions must be recorded in writing in accordance with Article 7 of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/990.
Liquidity management and KYC
The Investment Manager of any MMF Sub-Fund consistently applies liquidity management procedures for assessing the capacity of any MMF Sub-Fund
to maintain an adequate level of liquidity under consideration of the liquidity profiles of the relevant sub-fund’s various assets and the fund concentrations
and flow volatilities anticipated on basis of shareholders’ related know you customer information (that includes various elements like their size, any correlation
between them and past behaviors) and other liabilities impacting the Sub-Fund’s assets.

INVESTING IN THE SUB-FUNDS
SHARE CLASSES
Within each sub-fund, the SICAV can create and issue share classes with various characteristics and investor eligibility requirements. Each share class is
identified first by one of the base share class labels (described in the table below) and then by any applicable suffixes (described following the table). For
instance, “AE-MD” would designate Class A shares that are denominated in Euro and pay monthly dividends.
BASE SHARE CLASS DESIGNATIONS
Note that even when advance approval from the board is not necessary to own a certain class of shares, such approval is always required to serve as a
distributor of any given share class. For entry charges, you might be eligible to pay less than the maximum amounts shown. Consult a financial advisor. All
fees shown are direct fees. Any indirect fees that are attributable to target funds and are relevant for a given sub-fund, are noted in that sub-fund’s description.
Performance fees apply to most of the sub-funds and share classes. For a complete list of sub-funds and share classes currently available, go to
www.amundi.lu/Amundi-Funds.
Unless specified in the prospectus for each sub-fund the following terms shall apply to the Share classes referred to below

* Class M was available to all institutional investors for Shareholders having invested until 1st January 2020.
For the purpose of minimum initial investment, (except in the case of Classes E/E2) we aggregate the investments of a given investor (or group of entities
fully owned by the same parent company) across the entire SICAV (all share classes and all sub-funds). Minimums apply in euro or equivalent amount in
any other currency.
Purchases of any Class I or I2 Shares by Italian domiciled investors (including entities having an Italian parent company) are subject to receipt of confirmation
to the satisfaction of the Management Company or its agents that the Units purchased will not be the underlying investment for any product ultimately
marketed to retail investors in Italy.
Switches are subject to a max 1% fee. Classes H, M and M2 are not subject to switch fees.
Class SE and SE2 Shares are subject to fees agreed between the Management Company and the relevant investors, which will not be greater than the
management and/or performance fees specified for Class I and I2 Shares respectively of the relevant Sub-Fund.
I, I2, J, J2, X, P, P2, H, SE Units available for investors making initial minimum investments, either directly or through a nominee, In some cases, additional
requirements apply. The Management Company may waive the minimum investment requirement of any of these Unit Classes.
Class J: J3 are reserved for UK providers of independent advisory services or discretionary investment management, or UK distributors who: (i) provide
investors with fee-based investment services and activities and (ii) who do not receive any other fee, rebate or payment from the relevant Sub-Fund or the
Management Company in respect of those services and activities.

Swing pricing On Valuation Days when it believes that trading in a sub-
fund’s shares will require significant purchases or sales of portfolio
investments, the Board may adjust the sub-fund’s NAV to more closely
reflect the actual prices of the underlying transactions, based on
estimated dealing spreads, costs, and other market and trading
considerations. In general, the NAV will be adjusted upward when there
is strong demand to buy sub-fund shares and downward when there is
strong demand to redeem sub-fund shares. For any given Valuation
Day, the adjustment will normally not be larger than 2% of NAV, but the
Board can raise this limit when necessary to protect the interests of
shareholders. In such a case, a communication to investors will be
published in the dedicated website.
Asset valuations In general, we determine the value of each sub-
fund’s assets as follows:
• Cash in hand or on deposit, bills and demand notes and
accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, cash dividends and
interest declared or accrued but not yet received. Valued at full
value, minus any appropriate discount we may apply based on our
assessments of any circumstances that make the full payment
unlikely.
• Transferable securities, money market instruments and
derivatives that are quoted or dealt in on any stock exchange or
traded in any other regulated market. Generally valued at the last
available prices of the Valuation Day at the time of valuation.
• Non-listed securities, or listed securities for which the price
determined according to the above methods not representative
of fair market value. Valued in good faith at a prudent estimate of their
sales price.
• Derivatives that are not listed on any official stock exchange or
are traded over the counter. Valued daily in a reliable and verifiable
manner, consistent with market practice.
• Shares of UCITS or UCIs. Valued at the most recent NAV reported
by the UCITS/UCI that is available of the Valuation Day at the time the
sub-fund is calculating its NAV.
• Swaps. Valued at the net present value of their cash flows.

switching fee up to the liquidation date. The prices at which these
redemptions and switches are executed will reflect any costs relating to
the liquidation. The board can suspend or refuse redemptions and
switches if it believes it is in the best interests of shareholders.
Only the liquidation of the last remaining sub-fund will result in the
liquidation of the SICAV. In such a case, once liquidation is decided
upon, the SICAV and all sub-funds must cease issuing new shares
except for the purpose of liquidation.
The SICAV may itself be dissolved at any time by a resolution of
shareholders (for quorum and voting requirements, see the articles of
incorporation). In addition, if it is determined that the SICAV’s capital has
fallen below two-thirds of minimum required capital, shareholders must
be given the opportunity to vote on dissolution at a general meeting held
within 40 days of the determination.
Dissolution will occur if approved by a majority of the shares present and
represented at the meeting, or by 25% of the shares present and
represented if the SICAV’s capital is below 25% of the minimum (no
quorum required).
Should the SICAV need to liquidate, one or more liquidators appointed
by the shareholders meeting will liquidate the SICAV’s assets in the best
interest of shareholders and will distribute the net proceeds (after
deduction of any costs relating to the liquidation) to shareholders in
proportion to their holdings.
Amounts from any liquidations that are not claimed promptly by
shareholders will be deposited in escrow with the Caisse de
Consignation. Amounts still unclaimed after 30 years will be forfeited
according to Luxembourg law.
