This module fetches information from the Trustnet UK Funds service, http://trustnet.com. There are many UK Unit Trusts and OEICs quoted, as well as many Offshore Funds and Exhange Traded Funds (ETFs). It converts any funds quoted in GBX (pence) to GBP, dividing the price by 100 in the process.
Funds are identified by their ISIN code.
This module is loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object. It’s also possible to load it explicity by placing "tnetuk" in the argument list to Finance::Quote−>new().
Information obtained by this module may be covered by tnetuk.com terms and conditions See http://trustnet.com for details.

This module provides both the "tnetuk" and
"ukfunds" fetch methods for fetching
UK and Offshore Unit Trusts and OEICs prices
and other information from funds.ft.com. Please use the
"ukfunds" fetch method if you wish to have
failover with future sources for UK and
Offshore Unit Trusts and OEICs − the author has plans
to develop Finance::Quote modules for other sources
providing uk unit trust prices. Using the "tnetuk"
method will guarantee that your information only comes from
the trustnet.com website.
The following labels may be returned by Finance::Quote::TNetuk :
name, currency,
last, date, time, price, nav, source, method,
iso_date, net, p_change, success, errormsg.
