From today, Robeco will publish the net asset values of most of its Dutch funds on its website. Each fund's latest underlying value will be shown between 8:30 and 17:30h CET. The relationship between underlying value, share price and bid and offer prices used will thus be made transparent. The measure is part of Robeco's policy to bring the procedure for buying and selling Robeco funds in the Netherlands as much as possible in line with that used in Luxembourg, to the extent that the regulations in force in the Netherlands allow. In Luxembourg, funds can be bought and sold at the net asset value, and transaction costs are charged separately. Clients thus always know in advance what transaction costs they have to pay.
In its press release of 15 October, Robeco announced it will narrow its spread margins. It also stated that as of today the new, narrower margins, out of which exchange and brokerage costs and capital tax are paid, would be announced. The new margins are listed in the table below. The fund's prospectuses will be amended accordingly at the time of the next revision.
The net asset values of the following funds will be listed on stock exchange days on www.robeco.nl and www.robeco.com as of today.
