Dealing

The change of transfer agent means that dealing will move across from Citibank to International Financial Data Services (IFDS) Ireland. Orders should be placed with Citibank up to Thursday 2 July 2020 and with IFDS from 6 July 2020.

 

When is the last business day I can place an order with Citibank?

As Friday 3 July is an NYSE holiday and therefore a non-trading day for the funds, the cut-off for receipt of orders with Citibank is 21:00 London time on Thursday 2 July. We will not be able to accept orders via SWIFT after this time. Orders can be submitted from 08:00 Japan time on Monday 6 July using the new SWIFT details (SBOSIE2DTAD). Orders received by fax after 21:00 London time on 2 July will be held and processed by the new administrator, IFDS, on Monday 6 July.

 

Will Janus Henderson Investors/IFDS be providing updated dealing forms?

Yes, Janus Henderson Investors will be updating the forms with the relevant information for bank details and IFDS contact details.

 

Can I continue using existing application forms after 6 July 2020?

New application forms should be used for all instructions placed from 6 July 2020. Janus Henderson Investors and IFDS are putting procedures and monitoring in place to carefully manage all orders being processed across the migration period to ensure settlement is not impacted. This detailed monitoring will continue for at least two weeks post-migration. Any orders submitted using old application forms beyond that may be rejected and will need to be resubmitted using the new forms.

 

If I want to place an order by fax, what number should I use?

For clients in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) or North America:

Up to 2 July 2020:  +353 1 240 1602

From 6 July 2020: +353 1 562 5537

 

If you need to contact the Transfer Agent by email or telephone please use the contact details in the table in the Contacts section above. Please remember to use current contact details up to 2 July 2020 and the new contact details from 6 July 2020.

 

I place my orders via Calastone/BBH, is necessary connectivity in place with IFDS?

Yes, you can continue to place your orders as you do today.

 

Will my Citibank TA account number change?

No, your account number will remain the same

 

Can you explain the IFDS trade acknowledgement process?

For orders received by fax, you will receive an immediate automated acknowledgment specifying the number of pages received.  Orders sent by SWIFT will continue to generate standard SWIFT acknowledgement letters in the same way as they do today.  For orders received by post, contract notes will be issued within 24 hours of trade placement if the instruction is received in good order.

 

Will there be any changes to trading cut-offs?

There will be no changes to trading cut-offs, which remain as detailed in the prospectus

 

 

Settlement

When should I commence using the new Bank of America bank accounts?

You should use new bank accounts for subscription orders placed after 21:00 London time on 2 July 2020.

 

What will happen if I accidentally use Citibank account details after 2 July 2020

We have provisions in place to deal with this scenario for the first two weeks following the transition of services. After that, receipts into the Citibank accounts will be rejected back to the originator.

 

Will settlement of subscriptions and redemptions be netted after 2 July 2020?

We will continue to bulk redemption payments in accordance with the mandate you have supplied to us. You may continue to bulk settlement of subscriptions if you choose to.

 

Will there be any changes to how my redemption and dividend payments are bulked?

Redemption and dividend payments of the same currency will continue to be bulked. You will have the option to bulk the payments by the account number or the broker code. Note that where multiple accounts are tagged under a single broker code, bulking cannot be set up at both account number and broker code level.

 

Will my Citibank broker code change?

National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC) broker codes will be retained, so NSCC dealers should continue to submit trades as they do currently. Non-NSCC broker codes will change from 6 July 2020 and will be reflected in the trailer fee and commission statements.

 

Will there be any changes to the dividend calendar?

Yes. The settlement date for payment of distribution proceeds be increased from ex-dividend date + 3 days to ex-dividend date + 5 days. A dividend calendar will be made available on www.janushenderson.com and available upon request from IFDS at JanusHendersonTACS@statestreet.com, post migration.

 

Will there be any changes to the dealing calendar?

No. Should investors wish to receive the dealing calendar post-migration, they may contact IFDS at JanusHendersonTACS@statestreet.com.

 

If you have any other queries please contact your Janus Henderson representative or alternatively your investment consultant, tax adviser and/or legal adviser as appropriate.
