In this episode, our director of content, investment trusts Milosz Papst discusses Finsbury Growth & Income Trust (FGT), which aims to achieve capital and income growth and a total return above that of the broad UK stock market from a concentrated portfolio of primarily UK equities, with up to 20% invested in overseas companies that meet the managers’ strict criteria. He covers the trust’s differentiated approach to portfolio construction and its positioning and performance compared to the AIC UK Equity Income sector. He also explores the key themes represented in the trust’s portfolio, as well as the most recent additions to the portfolio. Finally, he elaborates on the trust’s dividend payments and the considerable amount of ‘skin in the game’ of Nick Train, the trust’s portfolio manager.***********************************************************About ‘Uncovering Trusts’'Uncovering Trusts': is a podcast run by Edison analysts released every two weeks.
