11. Additional Information
This is an update of disclosure made on 28th August 2014.
F&C Management Limited filed a disclosure on 28th August 2014 for issuer Scottish Oriental Smaller Companies Trust Plc (ISIN GB0007836132). The held position didn't trigger any new disclosures since 2014, therefore the TR-1 form has not been modified. However, in our current review, we noticed that the disclosure should be resubmitted under group name Bank of Montreal, as the disclosure happened after the BMO/F&C acquisition in May 2014.
The position in this disclosure is as of TD 20th Sept 2021.
In addition, please note that effective from 31 October 2018 below entity changed their name.
F&C Management Limited changed name to BMO Asset Management Limited
This name change represents the full integration of the Company into the BMO Financial Group.
Whilst our name is changing, our legal status, office address and contact details will remain the same. The Company's business remains fundamentally unaffected by this change and all contracts with existing customers will remain unaltered, with corresponding obligations and rights assumed under the new name.
The change is reflected in the chain of control.
