Continuation of the Company - 11 July 2018
The Board is pleased to announce that shareholders have given
overwhelming support for the continuation of the Company at the
Annual General Meeting which took place earlier today.
Shareholders, representing 51% of the shareholder register, cast
proxy votes in advance of the meeting, with 100% voting in favour
of continuation.
Shareholders also approved the final dividend for the year
ending 31 March 2018 of 14p per share, which represents a 2.3%
increase over last year's final dividend and a 2.6% increase in the
full-year distribution to 16.70p (2017: 16.28p). The distribution
represents a 4.35% yield on the year-end closing share price as at
31 March 2018.
The Asia Long Term Unconstrained mandate was implemented in
August 2014 and five-year performance figures will be available in
August 2019, which will give the Board the opportunity to review
the long-term credentials of the investment strategy.
