Catriona Hoare

Catriona Hoare discloses dealings in Montanaro UK Smaller Companies Investment Trust plc to RNS (LSE). Over a trading history stretching from 25 February 2020 to 23 July 2025, the count stands at 7 filings.

The open-market record is one-sided, with 3 purchases worth €29k and not one sale. Open-market purchases are the filings investors watch most closely, because the insider pays for the shares out of pocket. Besides market trades, the filings include 4 share grants. So far in 2025, the count stands at 1 purchase and no sales.

Half of the purchases are above €12k and half below. Clusters matter here: 1 out of 3 purchases overlapped with buying by a colleague within 30 days. Such overlaps are known as a cluster signal: distinct people reaching the same decision at about the same time.

On 23 July 2025 came the latest disclosure, an open-market purchase for €14k in Montanaro UK Smaller Companies Investment Trust plc. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on RNS (LSE), the median delay is 6 days. Under the UK Market Abuse Regulation, managers have three business days to notify their trades. Every figure here comes from the filings published by RNS (LSE) and describes the past, not future prices; it is not investment advice.
