GLI Finance (GLI) has successfully altered its investment strategy to participate in the fast-evolving and expanding alternative finance market through investing in alternative finance platforms, alternative finance loans and the creation of an asset management company. Loan growth at its platform investments is accelerating and management expects most to be profitable within a year. GLI aims to continue paying the generous dividend it paid as a CLO investor. It offers investors a 10% yield with the prospect of capital gains from its platform investments. A likely £30m issue of additional zero dividend preference shares (zeros) in early 2016, and dividends remitted from its investments could enable GLI to cover this dividend with cash earnings in the next couple of years.
