Change of Unit Registry
An important change to offer investors and our funds an improved service.
From 14 November 2022 we will transition unit registry services for a selection of our funds to Automic Group (Automic). While the transition results in a change to your existing unit holder account number, it includes a significant number of benefits to you including access to a simple and easy-to-use online investor portal.
Note: Investors in the Ellerston JAADE Australian Private Assets Fund and Ellerston Global Mid Small Cap Fund are not impacted by this change.
Key Changes
All unit holders have received a new Account Number.
- For unit holders whose communication preference is email, you will receive an email from Automic on 14 November 2022 notifying you of your new Account Number.

Updated offer documents reflecting new unit registry details and updated investor forms are available on the relevant Ellerston fund webpages. If transacting via paper form, please ensure you submit instructions to the updated postal address and transfer funds to the new bank account.
