Expense waivers represent the amount the fund waives or assumes in order to keep the funds actual expenses low. Waivers allow the fund to set a limit or cap on the amount of expenses charged to shareholders. Special waivers enable you to process more complex waivers. Special waivers allows you to process waivers that use assumption fees, waterfall waiver daily methodology, and waterfall waiver fiscal year to date (FYTD) methodology.
You can use special waivers to define the special waiver and recoupment elections for a fund. You can define the expense limit/cap and NAV component and link special waiver rules to entity share classes. You can include/exclude share classes from the special waiver recoupment process as well. For an assumption fee, you can only set up a special waiver at the total fund level. For waterfall waivers, you set up special waivers for the total fund and all share classes.
