CGT : CG Asset Management – Focus on absolute returns
Capital Gearing Trust (CGT)’s managers believe that it has built an enviable long-term track record by focusing on the preservation of its shareholders’ wealth, even when adjusted for the effects of inflation. This has attracted a loyal investor base. There will be times when the managers adopt a cautious stance and the trust lags rising equity markets. This is the situation that we find ourselves in today. The managers believe that valuations of most asset classes are stretched close to breaking point. The portfolio is positioned in short duration, liquid assets, awaiting a more favourable investment environment.
CGT’s dual objectives are to preserve shareholders’ real wealth and to achieve an absolute total return over the medium to longer term. It aims to achieve its investment objectives through long only investment in quoted closed-ended funds and other collective investment vehicles, bonds, commodities and cash, as considered appropriate.
