How to price a unit
• Prices calculated by the managers
• FSA rules
– prices based on net asset value at the most recent valuation
– calculate separate bid and offer prices although single pricing is possible
– maximum offer price = creation price plus initial charge
• Offer price tend to include an initial charge - around 5-6% on top of allowances for stamp duty and brokerage
![Page 78: 1 Introduction to Investment Bruce Viney Director of Training and Client Services.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062619/5515cb5955034693758b4b07/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)

• Their rulebook is known as the Takeover Code or Blue Book
• The rulebook principles state:–Shareholders of a target company must be treated
equally in all respects during an offer–Don’t bid for a company unless you intend to, and
can afford to, go through with the bid–Directors should make decisions by considering
what is best for shareholders, not themselves
