Our Investment Process

The fund manager’s goal is to generate a consistently attractive, growing dividend stream alongside long-term returns and capital appreciation.
The Liontrust Income Fund invests in durable ‘Quality’ dividend stocks, evidenced through Competitive Powers, and balanced across two complementary investment silos: 1) Dividend GARP, and 2) Repeatable Cashflow.
The fund manager uses a systematic analytical framework to identify Quality companies when they become available at a discount.
The manager seeks companies with Competitive Powers – strategic traits that underpin the potential for a company to generate persistently attractive returns.
The Fund is constructed using a distinctive, flexible style encompassing elements of Growth and Value investing. This helps mitigate style bias and produces balanced portfolios, with a potential to perform across different market and economic cycles.

The Fund is ‘focused’, containing relatively fewer holdings than those included in their benchmark indexes because the stocks are selected based on the high convictions of the investment team. Whether Fund outperforms or underperforms its benchmark depends on the investment team’s stock selections. While the Fund chooses stocks based on a long-term view of three to five years, they may underperform over the shorter periods because of short-term challenges.

Total return performance figures are calculated net of costs and charges, on a bid price to bid price basis (mid to mid for OEICs) with net income (dividends) reinvested. Where applicable the quartile rank is for the primary share class within the sector. If your investment is made in a currency other than that used in the past performance calculation the return may increase or decrease as a result of currency fluctuations.

Key Risks 

Past performance does not predict future returns. You may get back less than you originally invested. Bonds are affected by changes in interest rates and their value and the income they generate can rise or fall as a result; the creditworthiness of a bond issuer may also affect that bond's value. Bonds that produce a higher level of income usually also carry greater risk as such bond issuers may have difficulty in paying their debts. The value of a bond would be significantly affected if the issuer either refused to pay or was unable to pay. This Fund may have a concentrated portfolio. If one of these investments or sectors / factors fall in value this can have a greater impact on the Fund's value than if it held a larger number of investments across a more diversified portfolio. The Fund may encounter liquidity constraints from time to time. The spread between the price you buy and sell shares will reflect the less liquid nature of the underlying holdings. Outside of normal conditions, the Fund may hold higher levels of cash which may be deposited with several credit counterparties (e.g.international banks). A credit risk arises should one or more of these counterparties be unable to return the deposited cash. Counterparty Risk: any derivative contract, including FX hedging, may be at risk if the counterparty fails. ESG Risk: In reference to any component (where applicable) of a fund's investment process that uses external ESG data, there may be limitations to the availability, completeness or accuracy of ESG information from third-party providers, or inconsistencies in the consideration of ESG factors across different third party data providers, given the evolving nature of ESG. There is no guarantee that an absolute return will be generated over a three year time period or within another time period. The level of income is not guaranteed.
