The aim of the Fund is to provide income, that is, money paid out of investments, such as dividends and interest, as well as deliver capital growth, that is, to increase the value of investor's investment over a minimum of 5 years. The Fund also aims to deliver a yield, that is, the percentage of income returned on an investment, greater than the yield of the FTSE All-Share Index, over any 3-year period, after any charges have been taken out of the Fund. The Fund is actively managed which means the Investment Manager decides which investments to buy or sell, and when. The Fund will invest at least 80% in the shares of companies and investment trusts listed on UK stock exchanges. This will include a range of small, medium and large companies, with a bias towards small and medium companies.
