Investment transaction costs

Direct transaction costs incurred in the year amounted to £4k (2022: £8k) and are comprised wholly of commissions.

In addition to the direct transaction costs, indirect costs are incurred through the bid-offer spread on pooled investment vehicles and charges made within those vehicles. It is not possible to quantify the level of indirect transaction costs.
