Given recent market volatility we would like to highlight that when calculating NAV our administrators use the latest available prices. For the option exposure and credit protection there will be a lag in the prices being updated. The NAV of 17 March 2020 of 225.36p includes option values and valuations of the credit protections from 16 March. These investments have continued to contribute positively through the recent market turmoil. The NAV also allows for the deduction of a dividend of 0.95p payable on 27 March.
As a result, the year to date performance to the NAV point is -2.2% versus the FTSE All-Share TR which is down 33.5% to the close on 17 March 2020. For the month to date the performance is +2.7% versus -24.6% for the FTSE All-Share TR. Please see a performance attribution table below.
The portfolio has around 35% in cash and highly liquid cash equivalents to take advantage of emerging opportunities.
