Overview
JPMorgan UK Small Cap Growth and Income (formerly JPMorgan UK Smaller Companies : JMI) has an objective to achieve capital growth from UK listed smaller companies and a rising share price over the longer term by taking carefully controlled risks. The company has the ability to use borrowing to gear the portfolio within the range of 10% net cash to 15% geared in normal market conditions. Gearing may magnify gains or losses experienced by the company. The company makes quarterly distributions, that are set at the beginning of each financial year. On aggregate, the intention is to pay dividends totalling at least 4% of the NAV as at the end of the preceding financial year.
The trust was formed from the merger of JPMorgan UK Smaller Companies and JPMorgan Mid Cap (JMF) in February 2024.
