Portfolio Updates After each Transaction
We are pleased to advise that we are continuing with our enhanced service introduced last year. Until further notice, whenever we process an investment transaction for you we will provide you with an updated report of your portfolio showing:
- names of securities
- units held
- unit price (where available)
- market value
and the total market value of all investments you have made through us.
You can enhance the value of these reports by telling us about any investments you hold that you haven't transacted through us and we will report on those as well! So you can get a report of all your investments wherever they were transacted in one place. (There may be an initial loading fee for investments not made through us).
For those with existing accounts with us this will happen automatically.

Managing Director's Speech to Shareholders
Investment Research Group - Annual General Meeting
Held Friday, 16 September 2011
Fellow Shareholders, fellow Directors, Ladies and Gentleman.
It has been a short time since we have had a General Meeting and most of the contents of the Annual Report to 31 March 2011 are known to you.
It is not a pretty picture but it will not come as any surprise. We have kept shareholders and the market fully informed over the last two years. We have worked very hard to resurrect the company and give shareholders a return on their investment.
I have been advised on many occasions that I should simply walk away from the business and allow the business to fail. However I have been determined to reward those shareholders who have had faith in IRG and me.
The Special Meeting of shareholders held on the 6th May 2011 authorised a placement of capital to GA Sego and this has moved the company into a positive situation. The financial contribution by GA Sego plus the support of their directors: Tan Sri Hamid Bugo, Tim Munro-Keene and their alternate Rewi Bugo, has been very good for IRG. We are looking forward to working with them further and developing IRG and moving IRG to the next stage.
Comments on subsequent trading
Most observers of the financial markets will realise the volatility that the western world is in and will realise the pressure most financial organisations are under.
