APL board member Andrew Findlay said, "The offer has been very well supported and we are very pleased with strong demand for the investment strategy via the LIC.

"Whilst the Company has the ability to accept subscriptions in excess of $330 million, it has been decided that it would be in the interest of shareholders to close the offer at this point.

"Naturally, anyone that misses out will have the opportunity to participate in the aftermarket commencing on 18 October 2016."
