This report covers the period from 1 October 2017 to 30 September 2018.
Our accounting year to 30 September 2018 was challenging for equity investors as volatility returned to the markets. Our Investment Manager is an active stock picker, focused on finding discounted assets rather than being driven by equity markets in general – and this has proven beneficial over the period under review. As described in the Investment Manager’s Review, the portfolio management team has been particularly active this year in seeking to extract value from portfolio investments. This has borne fruit and I am happy to report that the portfolio once again delivered strong performance over the period, with a net asset value total return of 10.0%, which was 4.8 percentage points higher than the return of the benchmark, the MSCI All Country World ex-US Index.
