More on this equity

In this episode, our director of content, investment trusts Milosz Papst explores the BlackRock American Income Trust (BRAI), which aims to deliver an attractive level of income and long-term capital appreciation from a portfolio of dividend-paying companies that are trading at attractive valuations and are deemed to be ESG leaders, improvers or ‘sustainability enablers’. He explains the reason for the recent change in the trust’s name and discusses its distinct approach to investing in US equities, including its quality and value bias. In this context, he talks about the trust’s sector exposures, including healthcare, industrial technology, and energy. Finally, he summarises the trust’s approach to dividends and buybacks.
