This notice is to make the general public aware that the Swiss Investment Funds SICAV plc (“the Scheme”) recently requested the Malta Financial Services Authority (“MFSA”) to accept the surrender of the collective investment Scheme licence granted in relation to the Swiss Real Estate Development Fund (“the Sub-Fund”). The MFSA has accepted the Scheme’s request. This surrender is entirely voluntary and does not arise as a result of any regulatory action taken by the MFSA. Accordingly, with effect from the 24th October, 2008 the sub-fund ceased to be licensed by the MFSA.
