- “During 2024, the Board had observed some of the Company's funds had not been performing as well as expected or had become too small to manage efficiently. The Board took the decision to implement a programme of fund mergers and closures from 2024 and into 2025”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
