TAKE PROFITS: Alpha Financial Markets Consulting (AFM)

Close Alpha Financial Markets Consulting (AFM) at 496p

As mentioned in our previous update, Alpha Financial Markets Consulting recently received a takeover offer from Bridgepoint, a private equity group. This deal has now been formally agreed upon by Alpha FMC’s board.

Given this development, we have decided to take profits on our position in Alpha FMC. Our decision to do so slightly before the formal takeover price is primarily driven by the desire to mitigate the small risk associated with the takeover potentially failing. While the transaction is expected to proceed as planned, there is always a slim possibility of regulatory hurdles or other unforeseen circumstances that could impact the completion of the deal.

It’s important to clarify that by taking profits prior to the shares being taken private, we are aiming to lock in gains at a favourable price point. This approach allows us to manage risk effectively and secure returns for our investors ahead of any potential uncertainties that may arise during the final stages of the acquisition process.

Profit/Loss = +8.45%
