In Hardman’s latest October research note, they noted that the discount has halved over the past six months. Hardman notes management has been proactive in changing the asset mix (into lower-risk senior loans, away from development loans, reducing bond holdings), commencing an active share buyback programme and improving disclosure. Some real-estate market concerns have also moderated.

In terms of the outlook for RECI, Hardman states that the benefits from RECI’s risk reduction should improve the balance of investors’ risk/reward. The share buyback has recently been renewed at the higher (up to £10m) level. The initial programme was just £5m. Deal activity in the property sector shows participants’ confidence in that market.
