AU-1.4.51

In the case of CIUs whose holdings are listed and traded on a stock exchange (such as a closed-ended fund), actions taken by the CIU to align the stock exchange value of its holdings and its net asset value is taken as equivalent to the repurchase or redemption specified in Rule AU-1.4.49. The definition in Rule AU-1.4.49 thus recognises both open-ended funds and closed-ended funds: unit trusts, investment trusts, mutual funds, SICAV and collective investment schemes are all examples of CIUs. CIUs may also be constituted under contract law (as common funds managed by management companies); trust law (as unit trusts); or under statute (as investment companies).
