The portfolio is normally limited to shares of investment trust companies. These shares provide a wide spread of investment in the UK and overseas stockmarkets and are often available at substantial discounts in relation to underlying asset values. Income is not a major factor, and the yield can be expected to be slightly less than the average for investment trust companies.
