EVG - Eaton Vance Short Duration Diversified Income Fund

What this means for you

Sit Investment has told the regulator it may push for changes at this fund. That usually means asking the fund to buy back shares at close to the full value of its holdings, to change who runs it, or to close down and pay holders out.

Nothing is required of you now. If the fund itself announces a buy-back or a vote, it appears in the box above with the date by which you would need to act.

Large investors can also sell down and walk away. We show every notice they file, the day it is filed.
