Miton Global Opportunities: New research

08/06/18

Highlights:

-- A focused fund of investment trusts that has delivered annualised NAV total returns of 7.8% since launch

   --     A highly experienced manager investing in a differentiated portfolio of 'special situations' 

-- The growth of retail money in the investment trust sector means discounts are increasingly volatile, which suits the manager's style - his aim being to identify mispriced investment trusts

-- Recent action by the board has seen the trust's own discount narrow sharply, and a much larger footprint of retail investors on the register means better liquidity for this relatively small fund

Miton Global Opportunities aims to deliver returns in excess of sterling three-month LIBOR +2% by investing in other investment trusts that fund manager Nick Greenwood, who has almost 40 years' experience in the sector, believes are trading on discounts which are wider than they should be.

The trust, which sits in the AIC's Flexible Investment sector, has little in common with its stablemates in this sector, and has few comparable peers as a fund trust of investment trusts, particularly because of its unique focus on cash-plus returns. It is highly focused, with more than half of its assets held in the top ten holdings, and the investment process is very much driven by the expertise of the manager, although we understand that Miton is taking steps to put more resources behind the fund. Nick uses few quant screens or filters, barring a system that allows him to monitor investment trust NAVs in 'real time' - estimating the real NAV of a trust by looking at its underlying holdings and working out their value, rather than waiting for end-of-day NAV updates from the trust itself, or indicative NAVs that largely reflect the movements of the major index constituents in a trust's given market.

The trust is focused wholly on capital growth and has outperformed the average trust in the AIC Flexible sector by a broad margin over five years. Since launch in 2004, it has delivered annualised NAV total returns of 7.8%. Performance comes in fits and starts, however, with very strong years coming between more modest bouts of performance - though the trajectory of returns has only been negative twice in the last ten years.

About this service

Kepler Trust Intelligence for private investors is not just another news and research website. Our aim is to create a library of high quality investment strategy research, fund analysis and useful guides for private investors, all written in-house by experienced analysts on the investment companies team at Kepler Partners.

We are focused entirely on investment trusts, however we believe that it helps to understand them better if they are placed on a level playing field with OEICs, so you will see comparisons between the two in these pages often.

Our content falls into three categories;

Investment strategy articles are designed to highlight opportunities and developments which are of interest to investment trust investors, positive or negative.

Fund research focuses on individual trusts, examining them in detail to create a snapshot picture which you can use to decide whether or not you want to invest in them.

Educational output is split into simple guides, designed to help beginners understand how investment trusts work, and more complex guides to sectors, regions and strategies which may be of interest to investors.

We do not produce massive amounts of research. Our focus is on quality, not quantity, so we are unlikely to publish more than four or five articles in a given week. For this reason we recommend that you join our mailing list, and we'll send you an email once a week alerting you to what's new on the site. We won't sell your details, and we won't spam you with useless updates.

How are we funded?

Kepler Trust Intelligence is funded entirely by the providers of investment trusts, and is made available freely to any person (professional or private individual) who wants to access it. We clearly disclose all of our relationships, but our research is either paid for directly by specific trusts and their boards, or more generally by the larger asset management groups who pay to have adverts and advertorial. As a result, all of our research should be considered "non-independent" and readers should consider it as marketing.

All of our content is freely available to anyone. We run two versions of the site - one for professionals and one for private investors. The professional site requires readers to volunteer the name of the company they work for and the city / region - so that from a compliance perspective we can be satisfied that all readers really are a professional.

We provide information, not advice

While we hope that you find the research we publish useful, and we believe it will help you to make a more informed decision, but we must of course stress that none of the research published here constitutes a recommendation, or advice, and you should not think that - just because we've published a report on a trust - we believe that trust is a 'buy'. Please read our terms and conditions.

If you want to manage your own investments we hope that this website is a useful source of information which helps you to do that, however if you are in any doubt, you should speak to a financial adviser.
