Ukraine Conflict
At Crystal we are saddened to witness the tragic and growing humanitarian crisis currently unfolding in Ukraine and our thoughts are with all those who have been affected. The Trustee, together with its Investment Consultant and Investment Analyst, are closely monitoring the impact of the crisis on investment markets around the world. Whilst Crystal’s exposure to Russian investments remains very low at approximately 0.033%*, we will continue to review the situation and reduce holdings if and when market conditions allow. If you would like more information, please contact Evolve.
