Unit trust management
Grant Thornton Capital operates a registered Unit Trust Management Company in terms of the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act, No. 45 of 2002 (CISCA) and is a licensed investment manager for both retirement funds and private clients in accordance with the FSB requirements.
These funds are for the exclusive use of Grant Thornton Capital clients. Neither the general investing public nor independent financial advisors have access to these portfolios. Reasons for this exclusivity include the close control of both inflows and outflows of money (which often detrimentally affects retail portfolios) as well as closely monitoring and maintaining the size of the respective funds.
It is our experience, supported by significant statistical data, that many large institutional unit trusts for retail investors, through their sheer size are unable to outperform their benchmarks or their peers.
