JZ CAPITAL PARTNERS RECLASSIFIED INTOAIC FLEXIBLE INVESTMENT SECTOR

28 January 2016

JZ Capital Partners Ltd. (LSE: JZCP.L or “JZCP”), the London listed fund that invests in US and European microcap companies and US real estate, has been reclassified by the Association of Investment Companies (“AIC”) into the recently established Flexible Investment Sector.

The AIC launched the Flexible Investment sector in December 2015 to help Independent Financial Advisers (“IFAs”) find and compare multi-asset trusts more easily. AIC defines the sector as “companies whose policy allows them to invest in a range of asset types.” The name of the new sector mirrors the sector name used by the Investment Association. 

David Zalaznick, JZCP’s Founder and Investment Adviser, commented: “Following shareholder approval of a more diverse investment policy last year, we are delighted that the AIC has recognised our broader investment mandate. We are a multi-asset investment company with our assets primarily being deployed in Private Equity (US and Europe), Real Estate (Brooklyn, New York and Miami, Florida) and Asset Management (Globally).”

Ian Sayers, Chief Executive at the AIC, said: “The investment company sector has always housed a diverse range of sectors and investment strategies. One unifying theme in the Flexible Investment sector is the companies’ investment policies, which allow them to invest in a range of asset classes.

We hope investors and advisers will find the new sector classification useful and can easily compare the different strategies and styles in more detail.”

JZCP joins a list of eleven investment companies to be reclassified into the Flexible Investment sector. More information can be found here.
