OFST020560 – Share Class Launch Date
Launch date of the share class. This field is linked to "OFST010240 Fund Launch Date" as the launch date of this share class must not be elder than the fund's launch date.
To distinguish launch date from inception date, openfunds defines these two often synonymously used terms as follows: 1) Launch date: offering period is closed and a net asset value (NAV) is calculated. 2) Inception date: date when share class juridically came into existence. Usually there will be an offering period. In this case the inception date would be equal to the "OFST020558 Subscription Period Start Date". However, there might be situations without offering periods, i.e. if there was a fund merger. In this case the inception date would be the "OFST020560 Share Class Launch Date".
