Listed investment companies (LICs) and listed investment trusts (LITs) are like managed funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in that your money is pooled with other investors in a professionally managed portfolio of assets.
All allow individual investors to achieve greater diversification than they could on their own. They are also an effective way to plug holes in your investment portfolio through exposure to asset classes and market sectors you might otherwise find difficult to access.
As the name suggests, LICs use a company structure while LITs are trusts that generally take the form of an Australian Managed Investment Scheme (MIS).
