Moving to a more defensive position
Seneca Global Income & Growth Trust (LSE:SIGT) was launched in 2005 and adopts a ‘Multi-Asset Value Investing’ approach, aiming to generate income and capital growth with low volatility by investing in a multi-asset portfolio of equities, fixed income and specialist assets. Since July 2017, SIGT’s performance has been benchmarked against CPI +6%*. Annual dividends have increased each year since 2013. On 1 August 2016, SIGT adopted a discount control mechanism aiming to ensure that its share price trades very close to NAV.
