Illium Syndicate 4040 Result and Forecasts - 3.3.08

2005 has closed with a profit of £3,119,777 which is 4.4% return on capacity; this is at the top end of the range of (0.1%) to 4.9% at Q3 2007. This return will be better for bespoke Names as it includes 0.5% additional central guarantee fund costs for around 30% of the stamp capacity supplied by HCC's corporate Member.

2006 is currently forecast to return over 4% compared with 1% at Q3 2007..

2007 still too early to make any forecasts, so Illium will not do this until mid year.
