Edison issues review on Vietnam Enterprise Investments (VEIL)
Vietnam Enterprise Investments (VEIL) was launched in 1995 and is the largest Vietnam specialist closed-ended investment company listed in London. With an unconstrained, bottom-up investment process focussing on stock selection for capital growth, the fund has delivered good near- and long-term performance; achieving an annualised NAV return of 25% over the past five years to end-May 2018. Vietnam equities have performed strongly over the past two years, and a correction since the March 2018 VN Index peak has helped to moderate valuations. Meanwhile faster than expected GDP growth of 7.4% for Q118, and a sustained robust outlook, support earnings momentum. VEIL's discount to NAV of 14.8% is smaller than its three-year average of 16.5%, and may have scope to narrow further over time.
VEIL's current discount to NAV at 14.8%, is smaller than the three-year average of 16.5% and may have scope to narrow. Focused on capital growth, VEIL does not pay a dividend.
