It will provide investors access to stocks outside the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) top 50.
The offering, which will target listed Australian equities, will aim for a maximum of $50 million, while the LIC aiming at medium to long-term capital growth and income through fully franked dividends.
Barrack Street aims to exceed a benchmark return of 8 per cent per annum.
The offer is valued at $1 a share and investors in the initial public offering will get a free 24-month option for every share they subscribe for, applicable at $1.
Morgans Corporate is the leader manager to the offer, which will close on 31 July.
