A remarkable success story
Weiss Korea Opportunity Fund (WKOF) was one of the best-performing of all London-listed investment companies last year, and since its 2013 launch it has delivered more than twice the return of its performance benchmark index, the MSCI Korea 25/50 Index. WKOF has a unique investment approach within the investment company sector. Not only is it the only UK-listed fund offering investors dedicated access to South Korean stocks, it has also adopted a differentiated investment approach that seeks to profit from the valuation gap between the non-voting Korean preference shares that make up substantially all of its portfolio and the common shares issued by the same companies.
Weiss Korea Opportunity Fund is a closed-ended investment company. Co.'s investment objective is to provide shareholders with an attractive return on their investment, predominantly through long-term capital appreciation. Co. is geographically focussed on Korean companies, specifically investing primarily in listed preferred shares issued by companies incorporated in Korea, which in many cases have traded and continue to trade at a discount to the corresponding common shares of the same companies.
