The Munro UK Dividend Fund invests directly in the majority of the UK's largest companies. This means investors effectively become part owners of these companies and are therefore exposed to the risks and rewards that result from the ownership of any asset. As we have explained elsewhere on the site the historical data over the last 100 years demonstrates that equities gives better returns than cash or bonds when held for periods of ten years or more. However, everyone knows that the stock market can be subject to periods of volatility caused by changes in things such as interest rates, commodity prices and any number of political events including war.
Sometimes these events are taken badly and can depress share prices, occasionally quite sharply. It is because shareholders are prepared to accept this short term volatility that they can be expected to earn better returns over the longer term. In simple terms higher risks mean higher reward; eventually. As long as potential investors understand, and are prepared for that, then this fund is suitable vehicle for long term capital growth.
The Munro UK Dividend Fund offers the option of taking income out four a year from the dividends paid by the underlying investments. Alternatively, that dividend income can be retained in the fund and reinvested for additional capital growth. That is why the share prices for Income and Accumulation shares in each class are different, and will become more different over time.
