what happened

Investment companies Lowland Investment Co PLC and Schroder UK Mid Cap Fund PLC have confirmed compliance with the UK Market Abuse Regulation (MAR). The statements were issued through the London Stock Exchange's RNS service and distributed by Reuters.

Lowland said all inside information its directors and company may hold ahead of the results for the financial year ended 30 September 2026 has already been disclosed through a Regulatory Information Service. As a result, the company is not barred from dealing in its own securities. Should the directors receive new inside information, it will be notified via an RIS before any transactions take place.

Schroder UK Mid Cap Fund gave a similar confirmation for its year ended 30 September 2026. Its mandatory MAR closed period runs until the annual results are published and is expected to end no sooner than 25 November 2026.

why it matters

For the market this is a routine notice that does not change the valuation of either trust. It shows both funds have cleared any inside information before reporting, and it mainly matters to their shareholders. Investors may want to note the expected results dates, since trading restrictions on the companies' own shares typically lift after publication.
