Overview
Invesco Income Growth’s investment objective is to produce income and capital growth superior to that of the UK stock market and dividends paid quarterly that, over time, grow at above the rate of inflation. It aims to have a portfolio yielding more than the FTSE All-Share Index in order to generate sufficient income; provide shareholders with dividend growth in excess of inflation over the longer term; achieve capital growth in excess of the FTSE All-Share Index over the longer term; reduce risk by diversifying investments across a wide range of companies and sectors; and enhance returns by utilising gearing, when appropriate.
