From 4 August 2025, we are no longer accepting investment into the traditional retail share classes, identified as Class “A” or Class “1”, from new Investors into the Funds. Shareholders will instead be directed to an equivalent share class with lower fees and charges.

This process only applies to funds managed by Threadneedle Investment Services Limited.

A full list of the in-scope funds and the impacted traditional retail share classes that are no longer available for new investment, as well as the alternative cheaper share class that investors will be directed to, is provided in the attached.
