Material Events and Transactions
Over the Period, credit markets have eased and the stock market has continued to
recover. While the Copenhagen summit could have been more constructive as a
backdrop for an as yet immature industry, the portfolio focus has remained on
those companies operating in established areas of energy generation, such as
wind, nuclear, hydro and solar. There were no material events or transactions to
report.
