Chrysalis Investments (CHRY)

[StanBowles]

This early-stage investment fund (sometimes compared with Schiehallion) has been on a roll lately on the back of positive news on some of its key investments and a recent fundraising at 205p. I took the opportunity to invest a slice of my portfolio in the fund and have been pleased at the upward share price momentum since. I note CHRY hasn't attracted any comment on these boards. Is anyone else invested or have any observations to make?

Interesting. Might take a look. At first glance, could be riding a similar tide to the one that's been raising many PE and VCT investments.

There is currently a premium to NAV (27.8%) and I don't ( at first glance) understand the charge (AIC ongoing charge =0.71% , AIC ongoing charge plus performance fee = 8.15%).

The Trusts latest factsheet is dated end of March 2021 ( when there was a 6.1% discount to NAV! ).

"To generate long term capital growth through investing in a portfolio consisting primarily of equity or equity-related investments in unquoted and listed companies." Is how the AIC list the Trusts objective.
