Juridica Investments
Limited
('Juridica' or the 'Company')
Corporate update
Further to an existing and continuing review by the
Board of Juridica to consider the appropriate future direction of
the Company, in conjunction with discussions with shareholders, the
Board today announces that the Company will not make new
investments (other than for funding existing investments in the
Company's portfolio where such funding is reasonably required to
realise maximum shareholder value) and will seek to return capital
to shareholders in the most appropriate manner, following the
completion of investments.
Furthermore, the Board has commenced a comprehensive
review of all its cost and fees structure, with the objective of
reducing the ongoing costs and fees of the Company given the
investment approach set out above.
The Company's approach to realise the investment
portfolio and return capital to shareholders, will not require the
Company to dispose of assets ahead of their reasonably expected
maturity nor will it result in the liquidation of the Company in
the immediate future.
Lord Brennan, Chairman of Juridica, commented: "Both
the Board of Juridica and its investment manager acknowledge that
scale and diversity are now required in order to invest
successfully in this asset class, which is not achievable under the
Company's existing structure. "
A further announcement regarding the above matters
will be made to shareholders in due course.
Dividend
The Company announces that it has declared an interim
dividend of 5 pence per share payable on 30 December 2015 to
shareholders of record on 27 November 2015.
