SUMMARY

The Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) invests in UK stocks from across the market cap spectrum that have strong prospects for sustainable dividend growth. This all-cap income generating strategy was developed by Gervais Williams and Martin Turner of Miton Asset Management. The c 145 stock portfolio provides a broad spread of investments and has a strong bias towards dividend-growing smaller companies. In terms of NAV total return, the trust has generated +125% over five years, ranking it second in its 23-strong peer group (the Association of Investment Companies’ UK Equity Income sector). Since launch, DIVI’s annual dividend has grown from 2.0p in FY12 to 2.8p in FY16 and it has built a substantial revenue reserve.
