A specialist alternative equity Trust with a concentrated smaller companies portfolio
Strategic Equity Capital plc is a specialist alternative equity trust.
Actively managed, it maintains a highly-concentrated portfolio of 15-25 high-quality, dynamic, UK smaller companies, each operating in a niche market offering structural growth opportunities.
SEC aims to achieve investment growth over a medium-term period, principally through capital growth. The team looks to find companies with the potential to double shareholder value every five years.
SEC listed on the London Stock Exchange on 19 July 2005, having raised funds from a range of investors including institutions, pension funds and private banks. The Board consists of five Non-Executive Directors, all independent of the Investment Manager.
Studies have shown that smaller companies typically outperform larger companies over the long term.
Analysis by Numis demonstrates this ‘small-cap effect’: the smaller the company, the better the performance has been over the long term.
The Strategic Equity investment team at Gresham House has unrivalled experience and expertise in the area, across a range of open-ended funds.
Expertise and track record: fund manager Ken Wotton and his team are specialists in identifying great investment opportunities in smaller UK equities, and have a proven, long-term performance track record.
Distinctive: our UK equity team’s investment process employs a ‘private-equity approach to public markets’, a rigorous and repeatable methodology based on private equity investing techniques to deliver value and returns on investment.
A powerful network: our network of advisers and connections provides challenge, validation and insight to the investment team which in turn drives better decision-making, stock-selection and ultimately, value to shareholders. The network and advisers can also be connected to portfolio companies to support their growth.
Active and engaged: we invest in a highly-concentrated portfolio of between 15–25 companies. The investment team is actively engaged with investee companies working closely to build superior shareholder value.
Focus within an investment trust structure: the structure of the investment vehicle allows the investment team to be truly long term and to run a more concentrated portfolio of stocks with a high degree of conviction.
The SEC team applies Gresham House’s highly disciplined private equityapproach to public markets, with constructive corporate engagement and thorough due diligence.
The investment team’s experience in this area has shown the potential for strong returns.
The team can invest in a number of ways to help companies achieve their goals, including:
Ken Wotton provides an update on Strategic Equity Capital plc (SEC) for the quarter ending 30 June 2024.
SEC has a concentrated portfolio of 15-25 high-conviction holdings with prospects for attractive absolute returns over our investment holding period.
Portfolio value is likely to be concentrated in the top 10-15 holdings, with other positions representing potential “springboard” investments where we are still undertaking due diligence or awaiting a catalyst to increase our stake to an influential, strategic level.
At acquisition, no holding can represent more than 10% of the portfolio but a successful investment could grow over time to reach c.15% of net assets before ongoing trimming or a sale of the holding would occur.
Bottom-up stock picking determines SEC’s sector weightings, which are not explicitly managed relative to a target benchmark weighting.
The absence of certain sectors – such as Oil & Gas, Mining, Banks and Insurers – as well as limited exposure to overtly cyclical parts of the market, typically result in a portfolio heavily weighted towards Software, Healthcare and Business Services.
In our portfolio insights series the Investment Team sit down with Chief Executives from some of the portfolio companies we invest in, where they discuss the impact of our investment in the company.
