MI Downing Monthly Income Fund Market Commentary July 2017 in June, the MSCI UK All Cap Total Return Index Fell 2.57% While the Fund Fell 2.34%
MI Downing Monthly Income Fund Market commentary July 2017 In June, the MSCI UK All Cap Total Return Index fell 2.57% while the Fund fell 2.34%. Key contributors to the portfolio throughout the month were Sprue Aegis (up 16.47%), Polar Capital Holdings (up 9.87%) and Caretech Holdings (up 7.79%). Key detractors included Crest Nicholson (down 17.10%) and Conviviality (down 9.94%). Sprue Aegis, one of Europe’s leading developers and suppliers of home safety products, announced a positive start to the year in their June AGM statement. They expect a strong return to profitability in the first half of 2017 and with manufacturing and distribution arrangements progressing well, they believe they are well positioned to deliver a full-year adjusted operating profit in line with market expectations. Polar Capital released good group results for the period ended 31 March 2017 with assets under management increasing 27% from £7.3 billion to £9.3 billion. The results highlighted that co-founder of the business, Tim Woolley, will be standing down from his CEO role in July, although he will remain with the company as a non-executive member of the board. Gavin Rochussen will join the board as new CEO, bringing his experience as a CEO in asset management and track record in developing an institutional business and building a significant presence in North America. Caretech, a provider of specialist social care services in the UK, announced positive interim results in June for the six months ending 31 March 2017. Highlights included their acquisitions of Beacon Reach (a centre offering residential care and education to children) and Selborne Care (a centre providing support for adults with learning disabilities) after raising £37 million from a share placing in March. -
COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update
COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update 2020 AGM mid-season review FROM EQUINITI 01 Looking back and planning ahead It is incredible to note that it has been over 12 weeks since the official announcement on 23 March of the UK Government’s Stay at Home Measures, and nearly seven months since the severity of the pandemic became apparent in China. Over the said period, PLC boards, company secretaries and investor relations officers have kept their corporate calendars going thanks to rapid adoption of modified regulatory guidelines and inventive modes of engagement with investors. With annual general meetings being an obvious highlight in the corporate calendar, we take stock of the progress made so far over the 2020 AGM season, as well as using what we learned to plan ahead. Now that we are over the first ‘hump’ with the busy period of May AGMs out of the way, we are readying for the second ‘peak’ of June and July AGMs, and then an ‘easing’ until the second ‘mini’ season in the early autumn. As such, in this update, we look at: • 2020 AGM season statistics…so far • Proxy adviser engagement and ISS recommendations review • High-level assumptions for Q3 and Q4 • Relevant updates from the regulators, industry bodies and proxy advisers • Communications in the COVID-19 world – special commentary by leading financial PR firm,Camarco • How has COVID-19 impacted activism – special commentary by international law firm,White & Case 02 2020 AGM Season Statistics…so far Scope of data To assess progress and forecast what is to come, we look at the key statistics for the UK AGM season 2020 thus far. -

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. For ease of reference, the Regulation 14 Representation, dated 25 September 2019, is appended to this letter (Appendix A). -
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. -
