The scheme, operated under the NIC ASIA Bank Mutual Fund, consisted of 83,520,000 units with a face value of NPR 10 per unit. The fund reached its maturity on 2081/11/28.
In line with Chapter 7, Section 32(3) of the Mutual Fund Regulations, 2067, once approval is granted by the Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) for the termination of a scheme, the fund manager is required to liquidate all assets and distribute the proceeds among unitholders in proportion to their ownership, within a three-month window.
Accordingly, NIC ASIA Capital received SEBON’s official approval through a letter dated 2081/12/12 to initiate the closure of the NIC ASIA Growth Fund. Following this, all assets under the scheme have been successfully converted to cash, and the account reconciliation process has been completed.
As per the latest notice, payments to investors will begin from 2082 Ashadh 9 (June 23, 2025). The funds will be directly deposited into the bank or financial institution account linked to the beneficiary’s DEMAT account.
The capital has urged all unitholders to ensure their DEMAT accounts are updated with correct bank account information. If any unitholder’s bank details are missing or have changed, they are advised to update their records promptly to avoid any delay in receiving their payment.
