Listed investment trust Salvus says it has produced a 1.5% increase in net asset value in the first 3 months since listing.
Its NAV is 96c versus a shareprice of 84c
The company hasn't disclosed the names of the 10 companies it has invested in, but it has revealed that it is only 20% invested. Two of the 10 companies are listed on the NZAX.
The manager says it is in the process of negotiating several private placings, both in listed and private companies that should lead to a much more substantially invested position in the next few months.
New UK listed investment coy
Another UK-listed investment company, Caledonia Investments, has applied to have its shares listed on the New Zealand Exchange.
Caledonia is a Global Growth investment trust which was established in 1928. It is a self-managed investment company and has a longer term investment horizon than most other investment trusts.
Its strategy is to invest in and actively manage significant stakes in both quoted and unquoted situations where it believes there to be good opportunities for building value.
Caledonia chief executive Tim Ingram says the company has a proven investment policy of capital growth over the medium to longer term, combined with a progressive dividend policy.
