Details of the clarification
On 29 March 2017, the United Kingdom Government gave formal notice of its intention to leave the European Union (“EU”).
Taking into consideration the possibility that the United Kingdom may cease to be a member state of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) on or after 29 March 2019 (the 29th being the earliest date the UK can leave the EU), Janus Henderson will be making the following clarifications to the Prospectus in respect to those relevant Funds that reference the EEA in their Investment Policy.
The changes (highlighted in bold in the table below) will be effective from 29 March 2019. The relevant Funds will continue to be managed in the same way.
Only the Janus Henderson Horizon Fund - Pan European Property Equities Fund features in our guided-architecture products.
