Annual General Meeting
Statement
15 August 2017
Further to the Annual General Meeting Notice dated 18 April 2017 (the “Notice”) and sent to members
of the Company on 21 April 2017; the
Annual General Meeting was held today and members voted in favour
of Resolutions 1 to 9.
Helen Green, the Chairman,
commented as follows: “The Board is very pleased that members have
voted in favour of all the resolutions; by renewing the necessary
authorities to buy back shares the Board will continue to monitor
the pricing discount comparable to the respective investment
company sectors and the level to which a buyback would be price
enhancing and in the best interest of the Company’s members. The
Board considers continued marketing and promotion of the Company to
be an important factor in maintaining a healthy secondary market
and a relatively narrow discount.”
Details of the voting results, which should be read alongside
the Notice sent to members, are noted below.
