Long-established trust with strong dividend record
The Law Debenture Corporation (LWDB) is one of the longest established investment trusts, with a 40-year record of raising or maintaining its dividend. The trust holds a diversified global portfolio, primarily invested in UK equities, and is differentiated by its independent fiduciary services (IFS) business, which provides a regular income stream. This underpins the steadily rising dividends and allows the manager flexibility to pursue high return but low yield investments. The discount has widened since the move to reporting NAV including the IFS business at fair value, even with LWDB’s fair value NAV total return outperforming its FTSE All-Share index benchmark over one, three, five and 10 years. The trust has a competitive 0.45% ongoing charge and its 3.0% yield is one of the highest in the sector.Law Debenture Corporation is an investment trust and a provider of independent professional servicesdivides into two areas of business: investment trust and independent professional services.
