Fees are charged according to the number of funds or sub-funds operated by a firm as at 31 March 2006. Where a new collective investment scheme becomes authorised during a year, fees are charged according to the number of funds or sub-fundsoperated by a firm as at the date of authorisation. Where more than one fund or sub-fundis operated the number of funds (not including the umbrellaor parent fund) produces a 'fund factor' in accordance with the table above which is then applied to a basic fee to produce one total fee per operator. Fund factors are applied per operatorrather than per schemeso that the fees relate to the number of funds rather than the number of schemes. This means that, for example, an authorised fund manager of three schemespays the same as an operatoror authorised fund managerof one schemewith three sub-funds(as only the sub-fundsare counted).
