Investment process


The fund aims to provide high income (although there is no specified target) and the opportunity for capital growth.
Hamilton begins his process begins by taking a view on the gilt yield curve and to which area he favours, i.e. short, mid or the long end. A relative value approach to investing within this asset class dominates the proceedings from here. The manager reviews the peer group by looking for anonalies within the same sector or within credit ratings. Once these have been established, then the manager must satisfy himself on that the companies have a robust level of interest cover and that it is a stable growing company.

The value of your investments and the income from them can go down as well as up, and you can get back less than you originally invested. Past performance or any yields quoted should not be considered reliable indicators of future returns.
