Proposal to Liquidate the Company
The Board of abrdn Latin American Income Fund Limited (the
"Company") announces that proposals will be put forward for the
Company to be placed into summary winding up (the Jersey solvent
liquidation process commenced by members' special resolution), with
the cash proceeds of the liquidation being returned to shareholders
(the "Proposals").
While the Board believes that the Company's strategy remains
attractive in the longer term, it is aware that the Company's small
size makes it difficult to attract significant demand for its
shares and that the discount at which the shares trade to net asset
value is likely to persist.
The Board has considered the views of its largest shareholder
and its professional advisors and, taking into account the
composition of the share register as a whole, believes that the
Proposals are in the best interests of shareholders.
The Company will publish a Circular in due course setting out
details of the Proposals and to convene an Extraordinary General
Meeting at which approval for the Proposals will be sought from
shareholders. It is anticipated that, if shareholder approval is
forthcoming, the Company would be placed into summary winding up by
the end of May 2023.
The Board will recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the
Proposals.
This announcement contains inside information for the purposes
of Article 7 of Market Abuse Regulation (EU) 596/2014 as it forms
part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union
(Withdrawal) Act 2018 and as amended ("MAR"), and is disclosed in
accordance with the Company's obligations under Article 17 of
MAR.
