Ways to Invest
Find out how to invest in this fundHL Research - Our view on this Fund
The fund's positioning has remained relatively constant since our last review. It has a focus on international earners, with some 70% of the fund's underlying earnings coming from overseas. This includes the pharmaceuticals, telecoms and beverages sectors where balance sheets are strong and companies are paying attractive and sustainable dividends. If Sterling remains weak, this focus on overseas earnings should prove especially beneficial.
