HL 11: Election to become portfolio investment entity and cancellation of election
or “Choosing to be (or stop being) a special type of investment company”
You could also call this:

“Removed rule for unlisted companies becoming portfolio listed companies”

This part of the law used to talk about how a company that wasn’t listed on the stock market could choose to become a portfolio listed company. However, this rule doesn’t exist anymore. It was removed from the law on 1 April 2010. This means that since then, companies can’t use this option. The change affects how certain companies are taxed from the 2010-11 tax year onwards.
