EQS-News: Edison Investment Research Limited / Key word(s): Study Edison issues review on Aberdeen New Thai Investment Trust (ANW) 22-Dec-2016 / 10:00 GMT/BST London, UK, 22 December 2016 *Edison issues review on Aberdeen New Thai Investment Trust (ANW)* Aberdeen New Thai Investment Trust (ANW) has built a track record of more than 25 years as a specialist investor in Thai equities. The manager focuses on high-quality, cash-generative companies, which underpin ANW's sector-leading 1.8% dividend yield. ANW's NAV performance has been strong over one year, but lagged the SET index rally, which was led by more speculative stocks. The Thai stock market was largely unaffected by the passing of King Bhumibol in October but a short-term softening of economic activity is likely as the country mourns. However, an improving economic outlook and opportunities for Thai companies to expand into the dynamic ASEAN region are encouraging prospects for the medium term. ANW's share price discount to NAV (including income) has largely stayed within a 10% and 20% range over the last three years, averaging 15.4%. The trust's current discount is in line with the peer group average, while its 1.8% yield is the highest in the Asia Pacific country specialists peer group. Click here [1] to view the full report.
