This compares last year's top twenty and this year's top 20.  This year is at the top of the list.  I have indicated what's changed (although there are some very small differences that I have counted as the same, could be caused by the consolidation rounding).

What I find most interesting in this list is to see who has gone up.  One name jumps out, Mark Shawcross (at #10 and #11 respectively), as someone who has increased his holding, even though he signed up with Palmer's EGM back in 2012.

Given how much some people have complained on here about the terrible job, it is interesting to see who has increased and who is new, isn't it?
