IM Performance
The returns from CLIG's investment strategies were positive in Q1. Relative performance was slightly behind relevant benchmark indices. Above average volatility and equity market declines from late January weakened investment sentiment pushing closed-end fund discounts wider. This was the primary driver of relative investment performance over the period.
Over the period, there were inflows of circa US$125 million, outpaced by redemptions, resulting in net outflows of circa US$48 million across the Group's strategies.
Business development will focus on EM, International, and Opportunistic Value strategies, and KIM balanced mandates, where additional capacity is now available for prospects.
Operations
The Group's income currently accrues at a weighted average rate of approximately 71 basis points of FuM, net of third-party commissions. "Fixed" costs are c.GBP2.0 million per month, and accordingly the current run-rate for operating profit before profit-share is approximately GBP2.5 million per month based upon current FuM and a US$/GBP exchange rate of US$1.2337 to GBP1 as at 31 March 2023.
Chair change
