The Brunner Investment Trust PLC
The Brunner Investment Trust aims to provide growth in capital value and dividends over the long term through investing in a portfolio of UK and international securities. Since 25 March 2008, the benchmark has been a composite of 50% FTSE All-Share and 50% FTSE World Index (ex UK £).
Edison has provided research and investor relation services for the Brunner Investment Trust since 2012, when the trust traded at a 16% discount and 4.7% yield. Its research has explained management’s refocus of the portfolio, leading to steadily improving investment performance. Edison has helped the Brunner Investment Trust access a wide range of investors through regular nationwide roadshows and Edison TV interviews. The Brunner Investment Trust’s discount has narrowed significantly and wealth management and retail clients feature notably in the shareholder register.
