Personal Assets Trust PLC is a United Kingdom-based investment trust run primarily for private investors. The Company's investment policy is to protect and increase (in that order) the value of shareholders' funds per share over the long term. While the Company uses the FTSE All-Share Index (the All-Share) as a comparator for the purpose of monitoring performance and risk, the composition of the All-Share has no influence on investment decisions or the construction of the portfolio. The Company will invest in equities and fixed income securities and it may also hold cash and cash equivalents and gold. The Company may use derivatives as a way of increasing or reducing its investment exposure and to enhance and protect investment positions. The Company may also from time to time make use of currency hedging. Troy Asset Management Limited is the investment manager of the Company. Juniper Partners Limited is the alternative investment fund manager of the Company.
