Objective
The investment objective of the company is to provide shareholders with attractive tax-free dividends and long-term capital growth by investing in a diverse portfolio of predominantly AIM-traded companies. To achieve this objective, the Board intends that the long-term disposition for the assets will be not less than 85% in a portfolio of qualifying AIM, NEX Exchange traded or unquoted companies where the management views an IPO as a short to a medium-term objective. The non-qualifying balance will be invested in permitted investments held for short-term liquidity.
