Aegon Asset Management has launched the UK-domiciled Aegon Global Income fund to invest in a high-conviction portfolio of companies expected to sustainably grow their dividends over time.
Managers Mark Peden, Douglas Scott and Robin Black will mirror the strategy of their $1bn Irish-domiciled Aegon Global Equity Income fund. The UK version aims to provide an income equivalent to 130% of the yield of the MSCI AC World index over a seven-year period.
“The launch of the Aegon Global Income fund is a direct response to client demand for a UK-domiciled version of our successful global equity income strategy,” said Peden.
It will target companies with strong cash flows, stable balance sheets and consistent earnings, capable of growing dividends sustainably, while avoiding areas of the market where high yields are judged to come with significant risks.
“With global dividends reaching record highs for four consecutive years and the dividend universe expanding to include global tech giants and other non-traditional players, we believe this is a golden age for income investing and our disciplined, time-tested process is well-positioned to deliver both premium yield and long-term growth,” said Peden.
ESG factors are also integrated into the investment process.
