Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

Yeah, that's a good point.

Australian Finance Podcast

Do you own any licks?

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

Okay.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

Yeah, no, I don't.

Australian Finance Podcast

So one of the issues that you may find is that all the best licks traded a premium.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

Yeah.

Australian Finance Podcast

So you've got to be prepared to pay more.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

Yeah, so it's very hard to get your hands on some of them.

And generally, the better licks are keeping the market informed regularly, so it's harder to take advantage of any momentary falls.

Australian Finance Podcast

But one of the points that people would like to make also is that you should only ever buy licks at a discount.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

I mean, you should only ever buy them for less than the value of the assets inside the lick.

And the reason that they make that point is that there's fees.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

There's a friction with fees.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

So you have, you know, 1% fee plus a performance fee.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

You should be paying less than what the price is on market because you could just go out and buy them yourselves.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

So, I mean, I don't really buy into that.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

I think, pardon the pun, I think if you are a truly, truly long-term investor, you can afford to pay a little bit more than the NTA or the net asset value.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

But obviously you want to be realistic with that.

Australian Finance Podcast
Listed Investment Companies (LICs)

One thing you mentioned going to the website.

Australian Finance Podcast

Another thing I do while you're on the website is just look at performance and also pay attention to how they report performance.
