Speymill Group share price - these shares were only 5p a year ago and have had a decent run up so all the good news may be in the price?? My understanding is that they are launching a new fund which will invest in Berlin properties which will be traded on AIM. I understand the fund will be similar to Black Sea Property Fund (uk:BKSA) If you buy shares in Speymill, you are buying shares in their asset management business (Which should benefit from their deal to manage the Berlin properties) but not the actual Berlin properties (I think!)

Sledgehead Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Ive found a British property company ... listed on the AIM market. Having never bought an equity on this market I dont know how its done. Can anyone assist. Same as the fully listed market: just phone your broker. Bid off spread is only ~1%, so it must be fairly liquid at least at the moment, tho spreads could widen sharply on bad news (one of the drawbacks with aim shares).... curious choice ....

Please feel free to move off topic shortly. dogbox, Further to my reply above, this is probably the company you're referring to rather than Speymill Group itself Speymill Deutsche Immobilien Company plc News from Morningstar Speymill Deutsche To List On London's AIM 17 March 03-03-06 07:03 AM EST Edited Press Release LONDON -(Dow Jones)- Isle of Man-based Speymill Deutsche Immobilien Company plc said Friday that it is to seek a listing on the U.K.'s Alternative Investment Market.

Currently the head of Charlemagne Capital, and about 220 on the UK rich list, so there's some serious money lurking. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunday_Times_Rich_List_2005 http://www.charlemagnecapital.com/home.asp He's made a lot of his money from property and hotels, and I believe Speymill is going to focus on the Berlin property market. I think this may be the site in a few weeks: http://www.speymill.com/ He also thinks UK property is in deep trouble, read his book if you like. Quite a lot of it makes sense, but I wish he'd left out the fortune tellers! http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1...6206238-3666050 Edited March 9, 2006 by BandWagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
