What the filing says
ASA Gold & Precious Metals Limited's board approved converting from a Bermuda-based closed-end gold investment company to a Delaware-domiciled Business Development Company (BDC) with yield-oriented, credit-focused strategy. Saba Capital Management selected as new investment manager; company will shift from sector-concentrated gold investments to income-generating credit platform, change tax status from PFIC to RIC, and eliminate gold-focused investment policy. Conversion requires 2026 shareholder approval and is expected to close by year-end if approved.
