Hundreds Have Say on Future Plans for Kings Hill November 2012 www.kings-hill.com • ISSUE SEVEN Welcome We were delighted to see so many of you at our public meeting recently and listen to your thoughts on plans for the future development of Kings Hill. The main issues raised are detailed below but if you couldn’t make it, it’s not too late to tell us your views. This issue of the newsletter also has news of expansions on the business park and details of new residential developments which are now available to view. Work is progressing well on the new sports facilities and the refurbishment of the control tower. I am also privileged to say we recently paid tribute to Brian Bell, former Chairman of Kings Hill Cricket Club, and now have a permanent memorial bench at the club in his honour. Andrew Blevins Managing Director, Liberty Property Trust UK Ltd.

Introduction 1.1 This representation is submitted to the Horsham District Council (HDC), on behalf of Bellway Homes Ltd (“Bellway”) and Crest Strategic Projects (“Crest”), in relation to the Billingshurst Neighbourhood Plan Regulation 16 Consultation. 1.2 This representation specifically relates to the key aspects of the Billingshurst Neighbourhood Plan (BNP) that are relevant to the Land East of Billingshurst, Little Daux (the Site). It follows the representation made to the previous consultation on the Regulation 14 Draft BNP, and seeks to highlight any comments or concerns to help ensure full consideration and enable the basic conditions to be met. 1.3 Significantly, it is highlighted that the summary of representations to the Regulation 14 consultation, as contained in the Consultation Statement (February 2020), does not refer to our previous correspondence with Billingshurst Parish Council (BPC) or our submitted representations made on behalf of Bellway and Crest. Clarification is therefore sought as to the reason why this representation is not acknowledged and whether the details and comments raised were in fact taken into consideration in preparing the Regulation 16 BNP.

  • Rathbone Income Fund Update March 2020
    Rathbone Income Fund Update March 2020 So we come to the end of an extraordinary quarter. The Rathbone Income Fund fell back 26.2%, outperforming the IA Equity Income Sector, down 28.1%, but in line with the FTSE All-Share benchmark, midday to midday.* Unsurprisingly, the recent swathe of dividend deferrals and cancellations have also weighed on the sector … but more on this later. Our fund has succumbed to losses, which is never a nice experience, but there are three important silver linings: We are outperforming the sector, despite being hurt by our UK domestic exposure, which we had expected to come good after last year’s election; 3 months 6 months 1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years Rathbone -26.21% -23.02% -19.67% -18.45% -3.71% 77.90% Income Fund IA Equity -28.14% -23.00% -20.64% -17.56% -6.23% 54.82% Income Sector FTSE All -25.13%** -22.02% -18.45% -12.19% 2.89% 53.57% Share Index Source: FE Analytics, mid-price to mid-price; **this figure is from close of day to close of day, not midday to midday We are sitting on a decent cash pile (7.6% at period end), a war chest that we wish to put to good use; We have put through a 3% rise in our interim distribution. The biggest drags on our performance were Carnival (which has now been sold), Restaurant Group (which we have reduced), Bellway, Legal & General and Lloyds Banking Group. Carnival became an obvious high-profile casualty of the coronavirus pandemic, so we sold the shares ahead of its call to raise more debt and equity funding.

    JOHCM UK DYNAMIC FUND UNDER THE BONNET JANUARY 2020 REVIEW Alex Savvides, Senior Fund Manager Tom Matthews, Analyst INVESTMENT BACKGROUND Despite US-Iran tensions global equity markets initially moved higher in January on signs of a continued pick-up in global growth, reflected in JP Morgan’s Global PMI composite output index reaching an 8-month high. The coronavirus outbreak then reversed market gains as fears of a global slowdown returned and investor sentiment turned defensive. The FTSE World Total Return index closed down 0.6% and global bond yields fell. The yield on the US generic 10- year Treasury ended just 15bps off its all-time low. This provided a further boost to global growth stocks, with the NASDAQ 100 making new all-time highs. Commodity prices also fell. Oil was particularly affected as the US-Iran tensions later abated. In the UK, backward-looking data (Q4 GDP and UK retail sales figures) pre-dating December’s general election showed a weakening economy, but forward- looking data (the Nationwide House price index and UK mortgage approvals) increasingly revealed an uptick in confidence. Indeed, the IHS Markit/CIPS flash UK composite PMI index reached a 16-month high. Despite this, market sentiment was dominated by commentary from the Bank of England about the potential need for a rate cut and headlines associated with the initial stages of the UK’s trade negotiations with both the US and EU. The FTSE All-Share and FTSE 250 total return indices closed down 3.2% and 3.3% respectively. Sterling was broadly unchanged.
