Miton Global Opportunities: Still Finding Pockets Of Value After

 | Jul 16, 2017 04:46AM ET

Miton Global Oppurtunities PLC (LON:MIGO) seeks to provide absolute returns in excess of those on cash by investing predominantly in other closed-end funds that are under-researched, out of favour or trading on unwarranted discounts. The multi-asset portfolio, managed by Nick Greenwood, has performed strongly over the past 12 months, beating the total return from both UK and world equities and most of its multi-asset and absolute return peers. The introduction of a three-yearly redemption option may have helped to narrow the discount from its long-term average of c 9-10%. Meanwhile, the appointment of Numis as corporate broker and investment company marketing specialist Frostrow Capital has led to a significant increase in liquidity, as well as rebalancing the share register towards retail execution-only platforms as the discount has narrowed over the past 12 months.
