Investor letter

This is for your information only. You do not need to take action, but we recommend that you give this information careful consideration in order to fully understand the changes.

Article last updated 2 May 2025.

We, Rathbones Asset Management Ltd, are writing to you in our capacity as Authorised Corporate Director (the “ACD”) of Rathbone High Quality Bond Fund and Rathbone Multi Asset Portfolio (the “Companies”) to inform you about changes to the following funds:

  • Rathbone High Quality Bond Fund
  • Rathbone Multi Asset Enhanced Growth Portfolio
  • Rathbone Multi-Asset Dynamic Growth Portfolio
  • Rathbone Multi Asset Strategic Growth Portfolio
  • Rathbone Multi Asset Strategic Income Portfolio
  • Rathbone Multi-Asset Defensive Growth Portfolio
  • Rathbone Multi Asset Total Return Portfolio

together “the sub-funds”.

What is changing, and why?
The registrar functions of the Fund are currently delegated to SS&C Financial Services International Limited (the “Registrar”). This includes, for example, maintaining the register of shareholders. The Registrar charges a flat fee annually per shareholder, which we disclose in the prospectus of the Funds. Under our agreement with the Registrar, this fee increases annually in line with the Retail Price Index (RPI), effective annually from January 1st . RPI measures inflation by tracking the cost of a fixed basket of goods and services over time.

We are therefore amending the prospectus of the Funds to disclose that the fee has increased, in line with RPI, from £21.19 to £21.95 annually per shareholder (excluding VAT).  We will also clarify that the Registrar fee will increase annually, in line with RPI.
