The ‘Golden Week’ is a collection of four national holidays within seven days which starts on Saturday 29^th April and ends on Friday 5^th May. Due to the Japanese markets being closed during this period, some Management Companies have taken the decision to declare a Non-Dealing day on some of their funds. Management Companies have decided that as the Funds will be unable to implement any investment decisions or raise cash that it is in the interest of all investors to not allow dealing in shares in the Funds during this holiday period. A list of the funds affected by this are here. 

Please note although the 1^st May falls during the Japanese Golden week, this is a UK Bank Holiday so although this date is not referenced, those funds will also not be trading on this day. This is the case for all other UK domiciled funds.

We would like to apologise for any inconvenience this may cause but believe this is the best course of action to take.
