Manager's Monthly Report
April 2012
Performance
The capital NAV of the Trust fell by 1.3% in March in line with the return from the FTSE All-Share Index.
The large cap segment of the UK equity markets retreated in March in the face of weakness in metals and mining shares. The economic background remained weak although the Bank of England indicated that further quantitative easing was unlikely and kept interest rates unchanged. The UK’s credit rating was downgraded to negative by Fitch, the rating agency, and the Budget was broadly neutral in fiscal terms. The economy is forecast to grow at 0.8% in 2012.
The FTSE 100 Index fell by 1.8%, while the FTSE 250 Index and the FTSE SmallCap Index rose by 0.8% and 1.4% respectively.
Activity
The additions to the constituents of the FTSE 350 Index at the quarterly review in March were Petra Diamonds, Ruspetro, NB Global Floating Rate Income Funds and Avocet Mining. There were no changes to the constituents of the FTSE 350 Index in March outwith the quarterly review.
Strategy
The Trust’s portfolio replicates in full the constituents and weightings of the FTSE 350 Index and also holds most of the constituents of the FTSE SmallCap Index.
