Monthly Subscriptions and Redemptions1
No Capital Calls / Drawdowns
Conservative Leverage
  1. Redemptions will generally be processed on the last Calendar Day of each month (‘Redemption Date’). Note that an investor’s ability to redeem will be subject to various factors including available cash in KIT AUD and KIT AUD’s ability to redeem from the Underlying Fund. Please refer to the Product Disclosure Statement for more information on redemptions.

    It is anticipated that redemption proceeds will be paid approximately 44 Calendar Days from request. However, under the Constitution while liquid, CIML may redeem Units within 585 days following acceptance of the redemption request. If the Fund is not liquid, withdrawals from the Fund will only be permitted under a regulated withdrawal offer under the Corporations Act. Investors should note the Underlying Fund invests in highly illiquid investments which may limit the ability of KIT AUD to redeem its holdings in the Underlying Fund. By extension, CIML may be limited in its ability to accept redemptions in KIT AUD.

    Investments in Private Credit strategies are subject to several risks and there is no guarantee that any investment program will be successful or that an investor will realize a return of invested capital. There can be no assurance investment objectives will be achieved. For further information, investors should refer to the Product Disclosure Statement.
