LIC

What are the benefits of an LIC?

Managers of an LIC can focus wholly on their investments as they do not need to issue or cancel new shares in the company to respond to demand. This also allows an LIC to take a long-term view of investing. Additionally, they offer members diversification benefits and allow individuals to access market sectors that would be difficult to otherwise access.
