Unit trusts

Are they priced daily or is their price constantly changing? The fund management website that I am currently looking at only changes them once per day, after 5pm.

    They change throughout the day but the data providers only update once a day.

    Every day the trustees compute the value of the trust, divide it by the number of units in issue, and produce a bid and offer price based on that calculation. Unfortunately, when you invest in a unit trust, you usually never know the price you will be charged for units until the next valuation point, typically midday the following day
