Siddarth Chand Lall invests differently from most other equity income fund managers. He likes to find income opportunities among higher-risk small and mid-sized companies. They offer greater potential for growth than larger companies, which normally make up the bulk of most income-focused funds.

Our view on the sector

Equity income funds are popular with investors. Most aim to generate a rising income, and increase the value of your original investment, over the long term. The income can be paid out, or reinvested in the fund to boost long-term growth. Different fund managers take different approaches to income investing. Some focus on larger companies that are seen to be more stable and have paid regular dividends for many years. Others invest in higher-risk small and medium-sized companies. These might pay a lower income to start with, but have more growth potential. We think carefully chosen equity income funds can form the cornerstone of almost any portfolio.

Performance Analysis

Chand Lall's managed the fund since it launched in July 2011. As with any fund investing in smaller companies, there have been some big ups and downs in performance. Over the longer term the fund has tended to hold up better than the market when it's fallen but hasn't tended to keep up quite as quickly when the market has risen.

Part or all of the annual charge is taken from capital rather than income generated, increasing the potential for your investment's capital value to be eroded.

Investment Philosophy

The manager believes in focusing on income-paying small and mid-sized companies to achieve long-term growth in capital and income. He thinks companies that are performing strongly are more likely to carry on doing well, compared to companies where things aren't working out. Rather than wait for the latter to recover like some managers might, he'll move on to the next opportunity.

Process and Portfolio Construction

The manager invests in over 100 income-paying companies, giving the fund lots of diversification. He can search anywhere in the UK market from large to small companies. The manager analyses potential companies, so he can be confident they'll keep paying and growing dividends, and growing themselves too. He places a lot of importance on meeting with company management to get a good understanding of the business, its ambitions and its prospects.
