Re: Withdrawal of Post-Effective Amendment No. 1
to the Registration Statement under the Securities
Act of 1933 of Mackenzie Solutions
File Nos. 333-67705 and 811-09107
Dear Mrs. Williams:
Pursuant to Rule 477(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"), Mackenzie Solutions (the "Trust") hereby applies to withdraw
Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to its registration statement under the 1933 Act
that was filed on July 16, 1999 (the "Amendment"). The Amendment was filed for
the purpose of adding a new series to the Trust, namely Cundill Value Fund (the
"Series"). At this time, the Trust has determined that the Series does not
comport with its immediate business plans, although it may pursue registration
of a similar series in the future. The Trust states that it has never made a
public offering of securities of the Series; that the Series is not now nor has
it ever been active; and that the Series has no assets, known liabilities or
pending claims. The Trust believes that withdrawal of this Amendment would be
consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors.
Please contact me at (617) 728-7161 or Tracy M. Soehle,
Esq. at (617) 728-7174 with any questions you may have concerning the
foregoing.
Very truly yours,
