Christopher Mills who manages the Oryx Fund hasnot increased his stake simply to have tea at the House of Lords with lord Ashcroft. Oryx is an activist fund so let the fun begin.
Oryx International Growth Fund Ltd is a closed-ended investment company incorporated in Guernsey as a company limited by shares which are admitted to the Official List and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange. The issued capital of the Company consists of ordinary shares of 50p each.
The investment objective of Oryx is to seek consistently high absolute returns while maintaining a low level of risk, principally through investment in medium and small sized quoted and unquoted companies in the United Kingdom and United States. Target companies typically have strong business models but individually may have factors constraining their performance, which may be addressed through Oryx taking an activist approach as a shareholder.
