What are MM’s thoughts on Pengana Equity Trust (PE1)?

Hi Team, Thank You for providing such a great service for members. Joining has been one of the best decisions I have made. Acknowledging general advice only, do you have an opinion if PE1 represents a good addition to a portfolio to provide some access to private equity and further diversification? Do you have any interest in this stock? Would warmly welcome any thoughts. Kind Regards Phil

Answer

Hi Phil,

We haven’t held PE1 in the past however we did look at this at their original listing.  Alternative assets that include private equity is a growing area, and we think a great diversifier for portfolios.  Often, a balanced portfolio can have 10-15% in alternative assets, while well know investment managers like the Yale Endowment fund  have substantially more. Generally good private equity is hard to access for retail investment and the PE1 does a good job of solving this issue. Performance is fine at 14% pa since inception,  although a more direct approach will get better outcomes from experience, however there are hurdles around size of investment to access this. All in solid, PE1 is solid.
