Shareholder meeting resolves on dissolution of the parent company:
On 16 July 2018 the shareholder meeting of GUB Unternehmensbeteiligungen has been called. The major shareholders have announced that they will vote for the dissolution of the company. So that the parent company of GUB Investment Trust will be dissolved. The distribution of shares of the GUB Investment Trust (ISIN: DE000A0AYXP8) to its shareholders is planned earliest in Q4, 2019.

The custodian banks will distribute 489,900 shares of the GUB Investment Trust. The transfer of the shares will take place on Monday, 9 July 2018. That means that GUB Investment Trust will have new shareholders in the amount of 489,900 shares. The exchange was carried out in the ratio of 31:20.
As a result, 31 shares of GUB Unternehmensbeteiligungen, which the shareholders registered for exchange, were granted into 20 shares of GUB Investment Trust out of the assets of GUB Unternehmensbeteiligungen.

More than 14 million shares as payout
