Using the Investment Trust structure to execute the strategy is a key source of competitive advantage for a number of reasons

Long term horizon

The Trust structure allows the Portfolio Manager’s the luxury of semi-permanent, long-term capital which matches the long-term investment approach of the underlying strategy

Lack of inflow & outflow

Given Odyssean’s area of focus is smaller companies, that can often be quite illiquid, the Trust structure allows the Manager the ability to invest without the concern of daily inflows and outflows of capital that Open-Ended Funds are subject to.

Concentration

The Manager runs a concentrated strategy with engagement at the heart of it. Open-Ended Funds have restrictions around portfolio concentration and don’t typically lend themselves to an engagement focused strategy as the positions may have to be sold to meet investor redemptions.

These advantages of a long term time horizon, lack of inflows and outflows and concentration should accrue to the benefit of Odyssean Investment Trust shareholders overtime.
