VenGrowth Advanced Life Sciences, VenGrowth Traditional Industries and VenGrowth III Funds Announce No Further Subscriptions for Class A Shares
The Board of Directors' for the VenGrowth Advanced Life Sciences, VenGrowth Traditional Industries and VenGrowth III Funds (referred to as 'the Funds') announce that the Funds will no longer be raising new capital through the sale of Class A shares as of November 6th, 2009.
In 2005, a decision was made by the Ontario Government to phase out the provincial tax credit program associated with Labour Sponsored Investment Funds (LSIFs). Following this announcement, the Ontario LSIF industry has witnessed a steady decline in new funds raised in each and every year, to the point where nominal amounts are now being raised by the industry. Accordingly, the Board of Directors of each Fund have concluded that cost to the Funds of renewing the prospectus and associated filing fees outweigh the benefit of limited fund raising.
