Fund Description

A global equity, growth-focused, long-term total return strategy consisting of approximately 60 of the world’s best dividend growth companies.

These companies have high profitability and cash generation, consistent re-investment, low levels of debt and prudent governance to deliver the investment objective, enabling them to distribute increasing dividends to their shareholders.

The Fund follows our singular investment process and philosophy.

 

Our Investment Philosophy:

Everything we do is for the long term. We are driven by the simple notion that dividend growth is the dominant force driving long-term outperformance.

We’ve chosen dividend growth as our only metric of growth because we believe that it is the missing piece of investors' asset allocation puzzle.

 

Our Process:

Our process is framed by our in-house research and generalist approach.

To get from the many to the few we use our in-house grid and thoroughly sift and exclude companies. We do not assign sectors to analysts; we work as a team and scrutinise the stock rather than the analyst.
