In the first twelve months after launch, redemptions are entirely excluded (Ramp-up Period). Thereafter units may be redeemed quarterly, with total redemptions in a quarter normally limited to 5% of the fund's NAV.

Two stages: the fund gate of 5% of NAV per quarter and the overriding ELTIF limit of 27.3% of the liquid assets, which in stress phases may fall below the 5% limit. If the requests exceed the limits, the requests of the individual investors are scaled back pro rata.
