Activity during the Month The Company has continued to build stakes in its core portfolio, negotiating a number of block deals and committing to putting new money into two companies where the Company already has investments. The Company is also close to a similar transaction in third where it already has a stake. These three commitments, totalling just under GBP 2 million, are not included in this month's NAV. The Company has made a new small cap investment in Prime Securities Limited a Mumbai based corporate advisory and equity broking company. Prime Securities focuses on advising small Indian companies and assists them in their financing, restructuring and M&A needs. This month finally saw a sharp rise in share prices in the banking sector and the Company expects this trend to continue in the near term with lower interest rates, lower crude oil prices and inflation under control. Investments in these large cap stocks will however be sold out at an opportune time as we build out our core small cap portfolio.
