2021 – not great for Unit Trusts

2021 was not a great year for equity linked Unit Trust schemes, with the highest returns being 10.51 percent and the next best was 8.74 percent that is not bad when viewed against the Jamaica Stock Exchange Composite Index in 2021 with a rise of a mere 2.2 percent.

Scotia Investments Capital Growth Fund was tops in 2021 following years of being tops in the past.

Scotia Investments one of the perennial top performers in past years, delivered another industry-beating best performance in 2021, based on information published just before the last day of the year with a return of 10.51 percent, followed by Sigma Equity with a return of 8.74 percent. VM Wealth US dollar fund ended with 11.43 percent but the Jamaican Equity fund ended with just 3.7 percent.
JMMB Group’s Capital Growth Fund returned 5.09 percent whilst its Optimum Capital Fund rose 6.86 percent. NCB Capital Market posted gains of 6.24 percent, Proven Investments Select Equity returned 6.11 percent gains for their clients, why JN Mutual Global Fund had returns of 4.56 percent and Barita Investments could only manage a return of 5.09 percent.
Cumax Wealth Management Jamaican equity fund delivered a negative return of 3.16 percent for the year.
Investors should not only focus on recent performance but how well the funds have done over a lon=ger period. For the 5 years to the end of 2018, the three best performing Funds were Sagicor’s Sigma Equity, Scotia’s Premium Growth and Barita’s Capital Growth, for the 10 years to 2018, the same three Funds have been the top performers.

tTech offer seems a buy

TtechtTech a company most investors would hardly have heard about, will be going to the capital market this month, to raise approximately $50,263,900, by the issuing for subscription 25,652,000 ordinary shares to the general public and special persons related to the company at $2.50 each.
In reality only 16.4 million are allocated for the general public, a relatively small number. The Company that was formed in 2006 currently provides outsourced IT solutions to businesses currently in Jamaica. IC Insider’s preliminary assessment indicates earnings per share around 40 cents before taxation for a PE of 6.3 and would make the stock a buy.
The purpose of the offer is to provide working capital support to its operations and in order to allow the Company to augment its productive capacity and thereby to take advantage of new business opportunities as well as benefit from listing on the stock exchange and improve staff compensation by allowing them to buy the shares that are bound to increase sharply in price after listing.
The Company estimates that the expenses in the Invitation will not exceed $10 million. Subscription opens at 9 am on December 16th, 2015 and closes at 4:30 p.m. on the December 18th, 2015, subject to the right of the Company to shorten or extend the time for closing. If the Invitation is fully subscribed and is successful in raising $50,263,900, the Company will make an application to the JSE for the Shares to be admitted to the Junior Market. The company has been profitable with revenues growing at an attractive rate. The Company has adopted a dividend policy of paying 25 percent of profits each year.
All completed Application Forms must be delivered to NCB Capital Markets.
IC Insider will have a fuller report at a later date.
