Dear Luke,
Thank you for your reply. I have the following additional questions.
Please treat this as a separate request under Freedom of Information legislation.
1. What is the latest available value of your college’s directly-held investment in shares or bonds of the following companies: BAE Systems, Raytheon, Airbus, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, Honeywell.
2. What was the value of these holdings a year before the most recent valuation given above, or at the most recent previous valuation?
3. What dividend income and/or bond yield did the college receive from these investments in the last 12-month period for which records are available?
4. Does your college have any other investments in these companies via pooled investments? What is the value and dividend income from these investments?
Yours sincerely,
R Vidal
Dear R Vidal,
Thank you for your patience. Please find below the College's response to
your follow-up questions.
Dear Luke: with respect to the Freedom of Information request from R Vidal
(April 3, 2019) the college is able to answer in the following terms. On
item 1, having consulted our investment managers it has been determined
that only one of the investment managers holds shares in any of the
companies identified in the email – more specifically, the investment
manager only holds shares in BAE Systems. Since we do not hold directly
shares in that company, we are not able to provide “the latest available
value” of those shares. On item 2, as above, we are not able to provide
information on the previous value of the manager’s holding in BAE Systems.
With respect to item 3, again, we have no information on “dividend income
and/or bond yield” over the past 12 months. With respect to item 4, it
should be noted that the college only invests through pooled investment
products managed by external managers. The college does not have “any
other investments in these companies via pooled investments” other than
that indicated in item 1.
Sincerely,
Luke Bradshaw
