The Diverse Income Trust’s (DIVI’s) managers Gervais Williams and Martin Turner focus on generating a dividend income stream that is more resilient and has the potential to grow faster than those of the trust’s peers.

Since launch in 2011, the Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) has grown its dividend every year (compounding at an average annual rate of 6.5%), including during the global pandemic, when many UK dividends were cut. The strength of the trust’s revenue growth is also reflected in its capital appreciation that has enabled DIVI to deliver robust total returns. As globalisation has fractured over the last three years, equity income strategies have become increasingly popular with global investors, and the U...

Introduction ► The UK Equity Income sector (UKEI) is the fourth-largest investment company (IC) sector in the Association of Investment Companies’ (AIC) universe, with £12.5bn of assets (as at August 2023), and is the traditional home for investors looking for income in the equity market. ► The UKEI not only provides investors with a better dividend yield than the general UK market, but also has a strong track record of dividend growth. Indeed, many funds feature on the AIC’s “dividend heroes”...
The Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) has two co-managers, Gervais Williams and Martin Turner at Premier Miton, who employ a genuine all-cap UK equity income strategy. DIVI’s long-term total returns are a function of its income and above-average income growth and although valuations can vary, over time they become less important as they trade in a range. While the trust’s performance has been disappointing over the last two years as stocks have derated and AIM stocks have underperformed, its income pr...
The Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) is managed by Gervais Williams and Martin Turner at Premier Miton. They are very optimistic about the prospects for UK stocks, with Williams recently stating: ‘I am more bullish than I have been in the last 30 years’. UK equity valuations are looking very attractive versus other markets and their own history, while there is a historically wide discount between the valuation of DIVI’s portfolio and that of the UK market. The trust’s income is now higher than pre-CO...
Multi-cap Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) continues to be among the top-ranked UK high-dividend-yield trusts, despite some setbacks in short-term performance against peers due to its relatively high small-cap and AIM exposures (see page 3 for details). These segments of the UK market underperformed over the past 12 months. Portfolio managers Gervais Williams and Martin Turner are confident about both DIVI’s short- (should the global and UK equity markets continue to rally in H222) and long-term perf...
Alpha generation and low correlation of Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) with major UK indices has resulted in a steady long-term total return. After celebrating its 10-year anniversary last year, multi-cap DIVI continues to be among the top-ranked UK high dividend-yield trusts over periods longer than three years, despite some setbacks in short-term performance against peers due to its relatively high AIM exposure. About a third of DIVI’s portfolio is in AIM-listed stocks, while most peers are more...

The Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) topped the ranking of UK high dividend yield closed end funds at its 10-year performance anniversary on par with one peer by NAV total return (TR). This multi-cap trust is little correlated with UK equity indices but reflects the UK market’s performance trend. The managers Williams and Turner believe income shares, or what they call ‘short-duration’ shares, will outperform growth equities during the continuing UK and global recovery from the pandemic.

Williams and Turner are cautiously optimistic about the global recovery from the pandemic. Given the lag of the UK market since the 2016 Brexit vote relative to global equities, the m...

Gervais Williams’ and Martin Turner’s multi-cap approach to managing The Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) has yet again paid off, protecting on the downside. The trust has topped the ranks of UK high dividend yield peers over the past 12 months, and remains in the top quartile by NAV total return over the medium term. It has also materially outperformed the comparative indices since launch in 2011, demonstrating the managers’ skill to pick winners, patience, consistent approach, and the ability to di...
The Diverse Income Trust (DIVI) aims to provide shareholders with an attractive income, as well as capital growth, over the long term through a bottom-up approach to investing in UK equities across the market capitalisation spectrum. This gives the manager a wider opportunity set from which to pick stocks and dial down portfolio risk. DIVI has also profited from put options that boosted cash levels when the market was extremely weak. Although DIVI’s income may decline in the short term, as man...
