Investment objective
The Fund’s primary aim is to generate an income that is higher than that of the FTSE All-Share Index, together with investment growth over a three to five-year period after all fees and costs are deducted. The Fund invests at least two thirds (but typically significantly more) in the shares of companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. These companies are incorporated/domiciled in the UK or which have significant business operations in the UK. Typically, the number of holdings in the Fund will vary between 40 to 60 company shares and most of these will be the shares of large (such as those making up the FTSE 100 Index) companies. The Investment Manager does not intend to invest in every company in the FTSE All-Share Index and have the freedom to invest up to 10% of the Fund’s assets outside of it.

Our view
Colin Morton is the lead portfolio manager on the Franklin UK Equity Income fund. He specialises in UK large caps and is part of a close knit team based in Leeds who invest solely in UK equities. The team work in very close cooperation with one another, sharing research, debating and challenging investment ideas. The core of the team has worked together for over 20 years.
The fund offers a balance between stocks which pay a dividend yield at a sustainable premium to the market and those which offer dividend growth in excess of the market income growth rate. The fund exhibits a core style overall giving a mixture of both defensive and more cyclical dividend payers.
