Category: Open Ended Investment Company
The Fund aims to provide income combined with prospects for investment growth over the long term. It looks to provide an income yield higher than the FTSE All-Share Index over rolling 3-year periods, after the deduction of charges. The Fund is actively managed, and invests at least 90% of its assets in the shares of companies listed on the London Stock Exchange; predominantly UK companies. The Fund selects companies that exhibit above average income generation potential, as well as those considered to offer opportunities more by way of share price or dividend growth. These companies may be selected from any industry or economic sector, and whilst there is no restriction on size, investment tends to focus on the larger companies included in the FTSE All-Share Index. The FTSE All-Share Index is regarded as an appropriate performance measure of the UK stock market, with over 600 companies currently included. The income yield of this index (calculated using dividends declared by its constituent companies) provides a suitable target benchmark against which the level of income generated by the Fund will be measured and evaluated over time. The Fund typically invests in fewer than 60 companies, which may include shares of some companies not within the Index. The Fund may also invest in other assets such as cash and deposits, and hold other funds (including funds managed by Columbia Threadneedle companies) when deemed appropriate. Any income the Fund generates will be paid to you, unless you have chosen to have it reinvested. You can buy and sell shares in the Fund on any day that is a business day in London. You can find more detail on the objectives and investment policy of the Fund in the section of the prospectus with the heading “Investment Objectives, Policies and Other Details of the Funds”.
