Name of Person
Filing: |
This statement is being filed by City of London Investment
Management Company Limited (“CLIM” or the “Reporting Person”). CLIM is a fund manager, which specializes in investing
in closed-end investment companies and is a registered investment adviser under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. CLIM
is controlled by City of London Investment Group plc (“CLIG”), which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. However, in accordance
with SEC Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), effective informational barriers have been established between CLIM and CLIG such that
voting and investment power over the subject securities is exercised by CLIM independently of CLIG, and, accordingly, attribution of beneficial
ownership is not required between CLIM and CLIG.
CLIM is principally engaged in the business of providing
investment advisory services to various public and private investment funds, including Emerging (BMI) Markets Country Fund (“BMI”),
a private investment fund organized as a Delaware business trust, Emerging Markets Free Fund (“CF”), a private investment
fund organized as a Delaware business trust, Emerging Markets Global Fund (“CG”), a private investment fund organized as a
Delaware business trust, Emerging Markets Investable Fund (“CI”), a private investment fund organized as a Delaware business
trust, Global Emerging Markets Fund (“EUREKA”), a private investment fund organized as a Delaware business trust, The Emerging
World Fund (“EWF”), a Dublin, Ireland-listed open-ended investment company, Emerging (Free) Markets Country Fund (“FREE”),
a private investment fund organized as a Delaware business trust, Emerging Markets Country Fund (“GBL”), a private investment
fund organized as a Delaware business trust, The EM Plus CEF Fund (“PLUS”), a private investment fund organized as a Delaware
business trust, and unaffiliated third-party segregated accounts over which CLIM exercises discretionary voting and investment authority
(the “Segregated Accounts”).
BMI, CF, CG, CI, EUREKA, EWF, FREE, GBL, and PLUS are collectively
referred to herein as the “City of London Funds.”
The Shares to which this Schedule 13G relates are owned directly by the
City of London Funds and the Segregated Accounts.
