How you as a unitholder are affected
The Sweden-domiciled Korträntefond SEK will be the receiving fund in this merger. This is a merger by absorption, whereby the merging sub-fund's holdings, including its assets and liabilities, will be transferred to the receiving fund, and Luxembourg-domiciled SEB Fund 4 – SEB Short Bond Fund SEK will cease to exist.
You are not required to act, but we think you as an investor should be familiar with the merger. As an investor in the merging sub-fund, your units will transfer to the receiving fund, and you will become a unitholder in the Sweden-domiciled SEB Korträntefond SEK after the merger is completed. The receiving fund will continue to follow the same investment objective and strategy as previously, and the fund’s fees will not be affected.
