Our best performing investments this month were the Microequities Deep Value Fund (up 4.2%), and the Wentworth Williamson Fund (up 4.0%). During June we sold the majority of LICs in order to invest in the Affluence LIC Fund. We believe this will produce superior risk adjusted returns going forward.
At the end of the month, the Affluence Small Company Fund held investments in 5 unlisted funds (including the Affluence LIC Fund) representing 86% of the total portfolio. The balance was in 2 LICs accounting for 6% of the total portfolio, and 5% cash.
