Re: Correspondence #
Account Number
Dear (Name):
Thank you for your letter dated (month Date, 2001). We appreciate your taking
the time to communicate your concerns regarding recent changes to Liberty Funds
and the pending sale of Liberty Financial's asset management business to
FleetBoston Financial.
We understand that changes involving your investments can be unsettling. Liberty
Financial's decision to sell its asset management business was a difficult one.
After attempting to grow its asset management business through acquisitions and
organizational initiatives, management determined that the company needed more
scale and resources in order to achieve its full potential. Liberty Financial
believes that Fleet can provide the necessary scale and resources to deliver a
world-class asset management company.
The funds' Board of Trustees believes that there are benefits from combining the
asset management businesses of Fleet and Liberty Financial. These include
enhanced technology, access to greater resources for investment professionals,
high quality customer service and an anticipated availability of additional
investment options for shareholders of the funds.
Business operations will continue as usual until the transaction with
FleetBoston Financial is approved and completed. You will have access to the
same customer service personnel and receive the same quality products and
services you have come to expect from us. If any changes are planned in the
future, we will share that information with you as soon as it is available.
Again, we appreciate your taking the time to share your concerns with us. They
have been forwarded to upper management for consideration. Please feel free to
contact one of our Customer Service Representatives at 800-345-6611 if we can be
of assistance with the servicing of your account.
Sincerely,
