I start the ReSI PLC presentation. All right. I'm going to start the presentation now. Good morning and welcome to the Residential Secure Income PLC presentation for the year ending September 30, 2024. Let we move on? My name is Mike Adams, I am the Chairman of GH Real Estate. I'm delighted to be joined in the presentation today by Ben Fry, the Lead Fund Manager and Sandeep Patel, the Finance Director.
The presentation today will take a slightly different format to previous years as a result of the decision by the Board last October to commence an orderly wind down of the assets of the trust and the return of capital. This was ratified at the AGM on the December 6, last year.
I'm going to start by giving you a bit more background to the decision to wind up the trust including a high level overview of the actions we have taken to date and details of the process moving forward. I'm then going to hand over to Ben and Sandeep to run through the underlying portfolio performance and financial results for the year before
