Item 1. Reports to Stockholders.
(a) The following is a copy of the report transmitted to shareholders pursuant to Rule 30e-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (17 CFR 270.30e-1).
SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
MARCH 31, 2024
The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) recently adopted a rule requiring mutual funds to produce “concise and visually engaging” annual and semi-annual reports to shareholders. This streamlined format is intended to highlight key information for retail shareholders to permit them to assess and monitor their fund investments. More detailed information that has historically been part of shareholder reports, such as the shareholder letter, financial statements and financial highlights, will not appear in the new streamlined shareholder reports, but will be available free of charge upon request to the Fund or via the Fund’s Form N-CSR filed with the SEC on its EDGAR database. The compliance date for funds to implement streamlined shareholder reports is July 24, 2024; therefore, the series of the Perpetual Americas Funds Trust (the “Funds”) will issue their first streamlined reports beginning with the September 30, 2024 annual report. The new rule requires that each class of a mutual fund issue a separate streamlined shareholder report. For example, if you are a shareholder of two (2) share classes of four (4) separate Funds in the Perpetual Americas Funds Trust, you will receive eight (8) separate streamlined shareholder reports, one for each share class of each Fund, upon implementation of the new rule. In addition, the new rule requires that a hard copy of a Fund’s streamlined shareholder report be mailed to each shareholder, unless the shareholder elects to receive such reports electronically. If you wish to `opt-in’ for electronic delivery of the Funds’ annual and semi-annual shareholder reports, please contact your financial advisor (or for direct shareholders, please contact the Funds at 866-260-9549 (toll free) or 312-557-5913) for assistance in enrolling your account in paperless (i.e., electronic) delivery of shareholder materials.
This report is submitted for the general information of the shareholders of the Funds. It is not authorized for the distribution to prospective investors unless preceded or accompanied by an effective prospectus.

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust and Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds.
Prior to July 19, 2021, the JOHCM Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund, the JOHCM Emerging Markets Discovery Fund, the JOHCM Global Select Fund, the JOHCM International Opportunities Fund, and the JOHCM International Select Fund were each a series of Advisers Investment Trust (together the “AIT Predecessor Funds”; each an “AIT Predecessor Fund”).

Prior to December 6, 2021, the TSW Large Cap Value Fund operated as the TS&W Equity Portfolio, a series of Advisors’ Inner Circle Fund (the “TSW Predecessor Fund”), which was reorganized into the Perpetual Americas Funds Trust on December 6, 2021.
A. | Significant accounting policies related to Investments are as follows: |
INVESTMENT VALUATION
Investments are recorded at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques employed by the Funds, as described below, maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. These inputs are summarized in the following three broad levels:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
• Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices of similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, certain short-term debt securities may be valued using amortized cost. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current value of a security, but since this valuation is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities would be reflected as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Security prices are generally provided by a third party pricing service approved by the Trustees as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange, normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, each business day on which the share price of the Funds are calculated. Equity securities listed or traded on a primary exchange are valued at the closing price, if available, or the last sales price on the primary exchange. If no sale occurred on the valuation date, the securities will be valued at the latest quotations as of the close of the primary exchange. Closed-end investment companies, are valued at the last quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market, or composite in which each security trades. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at their respective net asset value as reported by such companies. In these types of situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Debt and other fixed income securities, if any, are generally valued at an evaluated price provided by an independent pricing source approved by the Trustees. To value debt securities, pricing services may use various pricing techniques, which take into account appropriate factors such as market activity, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, call features, credit ratings and other data, as well as broker quotes. Short-term debt securities of sufficient credit quality that mature within sixty days may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The Trustees have designated JOHCM (USA) Inc d/b/a Perpetual Americas Funds Services, investment adviser to the Funds, as the Funds’ Valuation Designee with responsibility for establishing fair value, in accordance with the Trust’s valuation policy, when the price of a security is not readily available or deemed unreliable (e.g., an approved pricing service did not provide a price, a furnished price was in error, certain stale prices, or an event occurred that materially affected the furnished price). In addition, fair value pricing may be used if events materially affecting the value of non-U.S. securities occur between the time when the exchange on which they are traded closes and the time when a Fund’s net asset value is calculated. The Funds identify possible fluctuations in international securities by monitoring the increase or decrease in the value of a designated benchmark index. In the event of an increase or decrease greater than predetermined levels, the Funds generally use a systematic valuation model provided by an approved independent third party pricing service to fair value their international equity securities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2024 (Unaudited)
In the fair value situations noted above, while the Trust’s valuation policy is intended to result in a calculation of each Fund’s net asset value that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing, the Trust cannot ensure that fair values determined pursuant to these guidelines would accurately reflect the price that the Fund could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by the Funds may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold, and these differences could be material to the financial statements. Depending on the source and relative significance of the valuation inputs in these instances, the instruments may be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used as of March 31, 2024 in valuing a Fund’s investments based upon the three fair value levels defined above:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Level 1 - Quoted Prices | | | Level 2 - Other Significant Observable Inputs | | | Level 3 - Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | Total | |

As of March 31, 2024, there were Level 3 investments held in certain Funds as noted above and in the corresponding Schedules of Investments. These investments relate to Russian securities held in certain Funds that halted trading in 2022 when United States (“U.S.”) sanctions were imposed after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. There was no other Level 3 activity during the year. The value of these securities compared to each Fund’s total net assets is not material and, therefore, the reconciliation of Level 3 securities and related valuation techniques are not disclosed.
EQUITY-LINKED SECURITIES
The Funds may invest in equity-linked securities, also known as participation notes. The Funds may use these instruments as an alternate means to gain exposure to what is generally an emerging securities market, such as countries in which it does not have local accounts. These instruments represent interests in securities listed on certain foreign exchanges, and thus present similar risks to investing directly
64

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

in such equity securities. These instruments are generally issued by the associates of foreign-based brokerages and domestic institutional brokerages. Accordingly, the equity-linked securities also expose investors to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the entity issuing the note may not be able to honor its financial commitments.
At March 31, 2024, the Funds held equity-linked securities issued by counterparties as follows:

CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
The functional and reporting currency for the Funds is the U.S. dollar. The market values of non-U.S. securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars based on the current exchange rates each business day. Purchases and sales of securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date. The Funds do not separately report the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates from changes in market prices on securities held. Such changes are included in net realized and unrealized gains (losses) from investment activities on the Statements of Operations. The Funds may invest in foreign currency-denominated securities and may engage in foreign currency transactions either on a spot (cash) basis at the rate prevailing in the currency exchange market at the time or through a forward foreign currency contract. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arising from sales of spot foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid are included in net realized gains (losses) from foreign currency transactions on the Statements of Operations. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period are included in Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency on the Statements of Operations.
The Funds may engage in spot currency transactions for the purpose of non-U.S. security settlement and operational processes. Certain Funds are authorized to enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts, for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a specified exchange rate on a future date as a hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio positions, or as a cross-hedge transaction or for speculative purposes. The objective of a Fund’s foreign currency hedging transactions is to reduce the risk that the U.S. dollar value of a Fund’s foreign currency denominated securities will decline in value due to change in foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates will affect the value of a Funds’ securities and the price of a Funds’ shares. Generally, when the value of the U.S. dollar rises in value relative to a foreign currency, an investment in that country loses value because that currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars. Devaluation of a currency by a country’s government or banking authority also may have a significant impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency. Currency markets generally are not as regulated as securities markets.
All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked-to-market daily at the applicable exchange rates. Any unrealized gains or losses are recorded in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on forward foreign currency exchange contracts in the Statements of Operations. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Realized gains or losses, if any, are included in Net realized gains (losses) on forward foreign exchange contracts in the Statements of Operations.
Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The contractual amounts of forward foreign currency exchange contracts do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The Funds bear the market risk from changes in forward foreign currency exchange rates and the credit risk if the counterparty to the contract fails to perform. The institutions that deal in forward foreign currency exchange contracts are not required to continue to make markets in the currencies they trade and these markets can experience periods of illiquidity.
There were no forward foreign currency exchange contracts as of or for the six months ended March 31, 2024.

INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME
Investment transactions are accounted for no later than one business day after trade date. For financial reporting purposes, investments are reported as of the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from investment transactions by using an identified cost basis method. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from non-U.S. securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date, or as soon as the information is available, and reflect applicable foreign withholdings taxes and any related reclaim amounts. Non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the asset received.
EXPENSE ALLOCATIONS
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund, while expenses that are attributable to more than one Fund are allocated among the applicable Funds in the Trust on a pro-rata basis based on relative net assets or another reasonable basis. Certain expenses that arise in connection with a class of shares are charged to that class of shares.
The investment income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses charged to a class), and realized/unrealized gains/losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based upon relative net assets on the date income is earned or expenses and realized/unrealized gains/losses are incurred.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Distributions of dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid as follows:
| | | | |
| | Declaration and Payment Frequency | |
JOHCM Emerging Markets Discovery Fund | | | Annually | |
JOHCM Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund | | | Annually | |
JOHCM Global Select Fund | | | Annually | |

Regnan Global Equity Impact Solutions | | | Annually | |
TSW Emerging Markets Fund | | | Annually | |
TSW High Yield Bond Fund | | | Daily/Monthly | |
TSW Large Cap Value Fund | | | Quarterly | |
The Funds intend to distribute their net realized long-term capital gains and their net realized short-term capital gains at least once a year.
Distributions from net investment income and from net realized capital gain are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (e.g. treatment of certain dividend distributions, gains/losses, return of capital, etc.), such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their U.S. federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Distributions to shareholders that exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.
U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION
No provision is made for U.S. federal income taxes as each Fund intends to qualify each year as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gain in accordance with the Code.

The Funds analyzed all open tax years, as defined by the applicable statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions that remain subject to examination. The Funds’, excluding the TSW Large Cap Value Fund, U.S. federal income tax returns for the tax years ended September 30, 2020 through September 30, 2023, as applicable, remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The TSW Large Cap Value Fund’s U.S. federal income tax returns for the tax years ended October 31, 2020 through October 31, 2021, and for the tax years ended September 30, 2022 through September 30, 2023 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Interest or penalties incurred, if any, on future unknown or uncertain tax positions taken by the Funds will be recorded as interest expense on the Statements of Operations.
Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
CAPITAL GAIN TAXES
Investments in certain non-U.S. securities may subject the Funds to capital gain taxes on the disposal of those securities. Any capital gains assessed will reduce the proceeds received on the sale and be reflected in net realized gain/loss on the transaction. The Funds estimate and accrue foreign capital gain taxes on certain investments held which impact the amount of unrealized appreciation/depreciation on such investments. The JOHCM Emerging Markets Discovery Fund and JOHCM Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund paid $234,962 and $3,595,004, respectively, in capital gain taxes which are netted with any refunds received during the period. This amount is included in the net realized gains (losses) from investment transactions on the Statement of Operations.
OTHER RISKS
Securities markets outside the U.S., while growing in volume, have for the most part substantially less volume than U.S. markets, and many securities traded on these foreign markets are less liquid and their prices are more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In addition, settlement of trades in some non-U.S. markets is much slower and more subject to failure than in U.S. markets. Other risks associated with investing in foreign securities include, among other things, imposition of exchange control regulation by the U.S. or foreign governments, U.S. and non-U.S. withholding taxes, limitations on the removal of funds or other assets, policies of governments with respect to possible nationalization of their industries, and economic or political instability in foreign nations. There may be less publicly available information about certain foreign companies than would be the case for comparable companies in the U.S., and certain foreign companies may not be subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements comparable to or as uniform as those of U.S. companies.
Certain Funds may invest in emerging market securities. Investing in emerging market securities involves risks which are in addition to the usual risks inherent in foreign investments. These countries generally are located in the Asia and Pacific regions, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Central America, South America and Africa. Some countries with emerging securities markets have experienced substantial, and in some periods extremely high, rates of inflation for many years. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have had and may continue to have negative effects on the economies and securities markets of certain countries. Moreover, the economies of some countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as rate of growth of gross domestic product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency, number and depth of industries forming the economy’s base, condition and stability of financial institutions, governmental controls and investment restrictions that are subject to political change and balance of payments position. Further, a Fund may face greater difficulties or restrictions with respect to investments made in emerging markets countries than in the U.S. Satisfactory custodial services may not be available in some emerging markets countries, which may result in a Fund incurring additional costs and delays in the trading and custody of such securities.

Natural or environmental disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis and other severe weather-related phenomena generally, and widespread disease, including pandemics and epidemics, have been and may be highly disruptive to economies and markets, adversely impacting individual companies, sectors, industries, markets, currencies, interest and inflation rates, credit ratings, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of a Fund’s investments. Given the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region are increasingly likely to adversely affect markets, issuers, and/or foreign exchange rates in other countries, for example, an epidemic or pandemic can result in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, as well as general concern and uncertainty. All of these disruptive effects were present, for example, in the global pandemic linked to the outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus designated as COVID-19 that was first reported in China in December 2019. The effects of any disease outbreak may be greater in countries with less developed disease prevention and control programs and may also exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. A pandemic and its effects may be short term or may last for an extended period of time, and in either case can result in significant market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, and a substantial economic downturn or recession. Infectious illness outbreaks can adversely affect the economies of many nations or the entire global economy, individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. Any such events could have a significant adverse impact on the value of a Fund’s investments.
Specific risks vary greatly between the various Eastern European markets, but they include, among others, corporate governance, fiscal stability, banking regulations, European Union accession and continued membership, global commodity prices, political stability and market liquidity.
For example, in February 2022, Russia commenced a military invasion of Ukraine. This outbreak of hostilities could result in more widespread conflict and have a severe adverse effect on the region and the markets for securities and commodities. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has led to, and may lead to, additional sanctions being levied by the United States, European Union and other countries and organizations against Russia and Belarus. Russia’s invasion and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect global energy, commodity and financial markets, and thus could affect the value of the Funds’ investments and broader global markets and economies, even beyond any direct exposure the Funds may have to Russian or Ukrainian issuers or the adjoining geographic regions. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial, and may put significant pressure on global financial systems, including on banks and custodians. The market capitalizations of many Russian companies have already experienced significant declines, and Russia closed its securities markets for an extended period of time, before reopening with limited trading. These market disruptions may result in the decline in the value and liquidity of Russian securities, devaluation of Russian currency, a downgrade in Russia’s credit rating, the inability to freely trade sanctioned companies (either due to the sanctions imposed or related operational issues) and/or other adverse consequences to the Russian economy, any of which could negatively impact a Fund’s investments in Russian securities. Sanctions could result in the immediate freeze of Russian securities, impairing the ability of a Fund to buy, sell, receive or deliver those securities. Both the current and potential future sanctions and other government actions against Russia also could result in Russia taking counter measures or retaliatory actions, which may impair further the value or liquidity of Russian securities and negatively impact a Fund or the broader global markets. Any or all of these potential results could lead Russian and other economic regions into a recession.

A significant portion of a Fund’s shares may be held in a limited number of shareholder accounts, including in certain omnibus or
institutional accounts which typically hold shares for the benefit of other underlying investors. To the extent that a shareholder or group of shareholders redeem a significant portion of the shares issued by a Fund, this could have a disruptive impact on the efficient implementation of a Fund’s investment strategy.

As a Fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the examples are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total cost of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at October 1, 2023 and held for the entire period through March 31, 2024.
The Actual Expense Example below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
The Hypothetical Expense Example below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

B. Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement for the Funds and Investment Subadvisory Agreements for the TSW Funds and the Trillium Funds
Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act requires that the investment advisory agreement between an investment adviser and a registered investment company and the investment subadvisory agreement between an investment adviser and investment subadviser be approved by the vote of a majority of the board of trustees, including a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in-person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. It is the duty of a board to request and evaluate and the duty of the investment adviser and the investment subadviser to furnish such information as may reasonably be necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement and investment subadvisory agreement. At a meeting held on December 14-15, 2023 (the “Meeting”), the Board formally considered and approved: (i) the investment advisory agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds and PAFS, (ii) the investment subadvisory agreement between Trillium Asset Management LLC and the Adviser with respect to Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund and Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund and (iii) the investment subadvisory agreement between TSW and the Adviser with respect to the TSW Emerging Markets Fund, TSW High Yield Bond Fund, and TSW Large Cap Value Fund (together, the “Agreements”).

Prior to and at the Meeting, the Board requested, and the Adviser, Thompson, Siegel & Walmsley LLC (“TSW”), and Trillium Asset Management, LLC (“Trillium,” and together with TSW, the “Subadvisers”) provided, both written and oral reports containing information and data relating to the consideration of: (i) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser to the Funds, by TSW to the TSW Emerging Markets Fund, TSW High Yield Bond Fund and TSW Large Cap Value Fund (the “TSW Funds”), and by Trillium to the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund and Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund (the “Trillium Funds”); (ii) the investment performance of the Funds, including the performance of each Fund’s predecessor fund, as applicable1; (iii) the costs of the services provided and the profits realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds, by TSW from its relationship with the TSW Funds, and by Trillium from its relationship with the Trillium Funds; (iv) the extent to which economies of scale are expected to be realized as the Funds grow; and (v) whether the proposed fee levels would reflect such economies of scale to the benefit of the Funds’ potential shareholders. The Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Investment Advisory Agreement and Investment Subadvisory Agreements (together, the “Advisory Agreements”) by independent legal counsel, from whom they received assistance and advice, including a review of the legal standards applicable to the consideration of advisory arrangements, and with whom they met separately from management. The Board also relied substantially on materials previously provided in connection with the initial approval of the Trillium Funds’ Advisory Agreements at meetings held in June and July 2023 (the “2023 Trillium Advisory Agreement Meeting Materials”).2 In reviewing the Advisory Agreements, the Trustees, including all the Independent Trustees, considered the following and other factors with respect to the Funds:
Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services
The Board examined the nature, extent, and quality of services to be provided to each Fund by the Adviser, to the TSW Funds by TSW, and to the Trillium Funds by Trillium. The Board noted that the Adviser is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Perpetual Limited. The Board considered the terms of the Advisory Agreements, information and reports provided by each of the Adviser and the Subadvisers on its respective personnel and operations, the Adviser’s experience with the investment strategy and risks of each Fund, TSW’s experience with the investment strategy and risks of each TSW Fund, and Trillium’s experience with the investment strategy and risks of each Trillium Fund. The Board reviewed each of the Adviser and Subadvisers’ investment philosophy and portfolio construction processes, compliance program, insurance coverage, business continuity program, and information security practices. The Board noted that, as set forth in the reports provided by each of the Adviser, TSW, and Trillium, there had been no previously undisclosed (i) material compliance issues or concerns raised or encountered since the last approval of the Advisory Agreements or (ii) material compliance issues in the past two years with respect to the Funds. The Board then considered key risks associated with the Funds and ways in which those risks were expected to be mitigated. The Board expressed satisfaction with the quality, extent, and nature of the services provided by each of the Adviser, TSW, and Trillium.
1 Each of the JOHCM Emerging Markets Discovery Fund, JOHCM Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund, JOHCM Global Select Fund, JOHCM International Opportunities Fund, and JOHCM International Select Fund has a predecessor fund which was reorganized into the Perpetual Americas Funds Trust (the “Trust”) effective July 19, 2021. TSW Large Cap Value Fund has a predecessor fund which was reorganized into the Trust effective December 6, 2021, and each of the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund and the Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund has a predecessor Fund which was reorganized into the Trust effective October 30, 2023.
2 The Board received materials relating to the initial approval of the Trillium Funds at the June 14-15, 2023 and July 26, 2023 Board meetings. At the Meeting, the Board was asked to consider approval of the Trillium Funds’ Advisory Agreements in order to align their renewal schedule with the other series of the Trust. For purposes of considering the approval of the Trillium Funds’ Advisory Agreements, the Board was asked to rely on the 2023 Trillium Advisory Agreement Meeting Materials. The Adviser and Trillium confirmed that, the previously provided information remained true and correct in all material respects, and neither the Adviser nor Trillium was aware of any developments that would preclude the Board from relying on the previously provided information for the purposes of its approvals. The Adviser and Trillium also confirmed that independent performance comparison information for the 12 months ended October 31, 2023 and expense comparison information as of June 30, 2023, prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions and provided to the Board at the Meeting, was also relied upon in the Board’s consideration of whether to approve the Trillium Funds’ Advisory Agreements.

Performance and Profits
The Trustees reviewed performance information for the Funds, including each Fund’s one-year, three-year, five-year and ten-year periods (as available) ended on October 31, 2023.

C. | Board Review of Liquidity Risk Management Program |
To promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the fund industry and to enhance disclosure regarding fund liquidity and redemption practices, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted Rule 22e-4 (the “Rule”) under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Rule, each Fund has adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “LRMP”) that, among other things, provides for (i) the assessment, management, and review of liquidity risk, (ii) the classification of a Fund’s portfolio investments into one of four liquidity buckets based upon the number of days that such investments may reasonably be expected to be converted into cash or otherwise disposed of without significantly impacting their price, (iii) the establishment of a highly liquid investment minimum where required, and (iv) the establishment of a 15% limitation on illiquid investments. Additionally, the SEC adopted Rule 30b1-10 under the 1940 Act, which generally requires funds to notify the SEC when certain liquidity-related events occur.
The Board of the Trust appointed the Adviser as the administrator for each Fund’s LRMP. Pursuant to the LRMP, the Adviser manages liquidity risks associated with the Funds’ investments by monitoring cash and cash equivalents and the concentration of investments, and by classifying the portfolio holdings of each Fund as either highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid or illiquid on at least a monthly basis. To assist with the classification of the Funds’ investments, the Adviser utilizes a third-party provider of liquidity monitoring services. At the Board’s regular meeting on March 27-28, 2024, the Adviser as the administrator for each Fund’s LRMP provided a report to the Board on the operation and effectiveness of the LRMP for the period from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 (the “Reporting Period”), noting that the Funds’ LRMP was adequate and operated effectively during the Reporting Period. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the reports, and there were no material changes to the LRMP during the Reporting Period.
