The initial proposal revealed on October 5 was for the three ASX-listed funds with $362 million of assets and a fourth $296 million unlisted fund to merge into one of the listed funds, before delisting and converting into an unlisted open Evergreen fund in May next year.as the proposed new fund would allow only redemptions of up to 5 per cent of assets every six months and subject to certain conditions.
