Publication of Circular and Notice of General Meeting

Axiom European Financial Debt Fund Limited (the "Company"), has today published a circular and notice of general meeting (the "Circular") in connection with proposed amendments to the Company's Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles"), proposed amendments to its investment policy and the disapplication of pre-emption rights (together "the Proposals").

As noted in an announcement issued by the Company on 13 November 2017, the Board has been considering whether the Company's listing should be transferred from the Specialist Fund Segment to the LSE's Premium Segment. The Board has now concluded that transferring to a Premium Listing would be in the Company's and Shareholders' interests, in particular as this may result in improved liquidity in the Shares and would potentially enable the Company to be available to a wider investor audience than is currently the case. Therefore, the Board proposes to apply to the LSE and to the UKLA for the Shares to be admitted to trading on the Premium Segment of the LSE and to the Premium Listing Segment of the Official List of the UKLA.

Shareholder approval for the Proposals is being sought to ensure that the Company is eligible for a Premium Listing on the Official List of the UK Listing Authority, which is subject to approval by the UK Listing Authority.

Notice of General Meeting

Notice is hereby given that a general meeting will be held at 10:30am on 05 October 2018 at 1st Floor, Royal Chambers, St Julian's Avenue, St Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 3JX for the purpose of approving the Proposals.

A copy of the Circular will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at http://axiom-ai.com/web/en/axiom-european-financial-debt-fund-limited-2/.  

The Circular will be posted to Shareholders and will also be available from the Company's registered office, 1st Floor, Royal Chambers, St Julian's Avenue, St Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 3JX.
