Fund Overview and Strategy
An Introduction
Welcome to The Glanmore Property Fund, a specialist property fund established in 1997 to provide both onshore / offshore private investors and pension funds (SIPPs and SASSs) with the opportunity of participating in the higher yielding sector of the UK commercial property market through a professionally managed, specialist fund.
The Fund enables investors to spread their risk over a broad range of properties, the cost of which would normally be prohibitively expensive for a single private investor.
Please note that the fund deals on a weekly basis (every Wednesday). Applications, including monies, and redemption requests must be received by Investec Administration Services by 5pm the day before. The fund prices monthly.

The Glanmore Property Fund was formed as an offshore company so that, under current UK tax law, income from dividends is paid gross and any capital disposal within the Fund is free from capital gains tax (CGT).
In a nutshell, the Glanmore Property Fund has to date offered investors quality management, low costs, low risk, income diversification, prudent gearing, quality tenants with good liquidity and good performance
Strategy
- To invest in a diversified portfolio of commercial properties in the retail, retail warehouse, office and industrial warehouse sectors of the UK market;
- To invest 70% of the gross value of the Portfolio into good quality, higher yielding, commercial properties with no individual investment on acquisition representing more than 15% of the gross value of the portfolio;
- To invest up to 30% by gross value of the Portfolio into properties that stand to benefit from active management in order to have the possibility of achieving a better overall return from the portfolio than standing investments;
- To maximise total return, being rental income plus capital appreciation, and to minimise costs;
- To provide annual compound growth (the sum of net income added to the movements in the capital value of the underlying assets during the period) which will on a rolling five year basis exceed the Investment Property Databank Property Index for similar property investments;
- To limit risk by prudent gearing on 1:1.22 equity : loan basis using fixed rate or capped rate loans. Interest on borrowings is therefore known and controlled
The strategy is subject to change at the discretion of the Directors of the Fund, in the light of prevailing economic conditions.
Your attention is drawn to the risk factors set out below:-
Risk Factors
- The general market for commercial property may during the period of any investment in shares in the Fund depreciate with the result that the value of the Fund's property investment portfolio falls. The value of any individual property may fall, for example, due to the insolvency of a tenant. The monthly valuation of the Fund will be predominantly based on the opinion of the valuer of the Fund of the current market value of the Fund's property portfolio.
- The cash resources immediately available to meet applications for redemptions of shares in the Fund are limited and if net redemption requests on any subscription day exceed those resources investment properties may need to be sold in order to redeem such shares. As land and buildings may be difficult to sell on these occasions, there may be times when the shares cannot be immediately redeemed.
- An investment of the type offered by the Fund may not be suitable for all investors who should seek advice from their investment adviser.
- It is intended that an investment in the shares in the Fund will procure regular income for the investors who should be aware that this income will fluctuate. In addition it should be noted that the tax treatment of the Fund may change.
- Charges and expenses in connection with the Fund are not made uniformly throughout its life and it is possible that an investor may not receive back the full amount of its investment especially if it is redeemed within one year.
- Redemption of the shares in the Fund is at the discretion of the Fund's Directors and there may be circumstances in which it is decided not to permit redemption. Your attention is drawn to the provisions for redemption in the Prospectus.
- Past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance.
