Finsbury Growth & Income Trust - ‘Perfectly rational to do nothing if you are unsure’
Finsbury Growth & Income Trust (FGT) is celebrating its 20th anniversary under the management of Nick Train. While underperforming in recent months, the trust is ahead of the broad UK market over the last one, three, five and 10 years. Stock market volatility in 2020 afforded the manager an opportunity to add another new name to the fund, credit bureau Experian, which he considers a rare example of a globally significant UK company that is benefiting from the optimisation of its vast database. Train is sticking to his tried-and-tested process that incorporates three rules of thumb: ‘if a company’s products taste good, buy the shares; the world will never be bored of being informed or entertained; and the pros are always too cautious about the stock market’.Finsbury Growth & Income Trust is an investment trust company. Co.'s investment policy is to invest principally in the securities of U.K. listed companies, whilst up to a maximum of 20.0% of its portfolio, at the time of acquisition, can be invested in quoted companies worldwide.

Co. has appointed Frostrow Capital LLP (Frostrow) as alternative investment fund manager to provide company management, company secretarial, administrative and marketing services.
