Alembic designs and produces these annual reports for Asset Value Investors (AVI), the fund managers responsible for British Empire Securities and General Trust plc and European Asset Value Fund. British Empire has a growing retail shareholder base, whilst European Asset Value Fund is produced for a much smaller specialist audience.
Our 2005 annual report for British Empire Securities was awarded "Best Annual Report" by the AITC (Association of Investment Trust Companies) in the 2005 'Annual Investment Trusts: Best Information to Shareholders' Awards. This was based on criteria of "clarity, quality and relevance of information", "accessibility" and "effective use of design and graphics".
