FCA is consulting on changes to which would apply to non-UCITS retail scheme funds that are predominantly invested in inherently illiquid assets and offer regular liquidity. FCA proposes to: limit the frequency of dealing days (when the fund manager redeems or cancels investors’ units in the fund); introduce minimum notice periods for redemptions (how long the investor must wait between putting in a request to redeem and the fund manager executing the redemption), and align these minimum redemption terms with the long-term asset fund regime. FCA is also proposing to allow all NURS fund managers to introduce similar limited redemption arrangements if they want to, and to amend some of the related rules and to allow LTAF investors to revoke redemption requests during the notice period if the fund manager is satisfied it would not be unfair to other investors. Responses are required by 11 December 2026.
