Capital Continues To Flow Into LMIs

Through April and May we have seen three more listed managed investment vehicles (LMIs) start trading on the ASX including two fixed income focused listed investment trusts (LITs), Perpetual Credit Income Trust (ASX:PCI) and MCP Wholesale Income Opportunities Trust (ASX:MOT).

In addition to funds flowing into new LMIs, there have also been a number of secondary market raisings in recent months. In May/ June VGI Partners Global Investments (ASX:VG1) successfully raised $300m via a placement and entitlements offer. VG1 shareholders also stumped up $75m for shares in the Manager as part of an IPO offer for VGI Partners (ASX:VGI).
