Rathbone Income Fund
Fund snapshot
View factsheet View monthly investment note View quarterly investment note View full fund holdings informationWe aim to deliver an annual income that is in line with or better than that of the FTSE All-Share Index over any rolling three-year period. We also aim to increase the income we pay you in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) measure of inflation over any rolling five-year period.
We aim to generate a greater total return than the FTSE All-Share Index, after fees, over any five-year period. Total return means the return we receive from the value of our investments increasing (capital growth) plus the income we receive from our investments (dividend payments).
We use the FTSE All-Share Index as a target for our fund’s return and the income we pay because we want to offer you a better income and higher returns than the UK stock market. Increasing your income payments at least in line with the CPI measure of inflation protects your future spending power.
We also compare our fund against the Investment Association (IA) UK Equity Income sector because the funds in it are similar to ours.

Sleepless in Silicon Valley
Trying to unpick the turmoil in the banking sector, the team discuss what happened in the last week or so and what it means for the future, and explain what action they’ve taken as a result. Their gaze then shifts to our fair shores as they ask whether, after a few years in the investment wilderness, the UK could be on the precipice of some structural changes that might support the economy and perhaps the equity market too.

Quarterly investment commentary, Q3 2022
In our August letter we argued for the futility of trying to predict the future. How apt therefore that a few delays meant the letter went out a week late, and therefore with an ironic predictability pre-dated the Chancellor’s ‘fiscal event’ by a mere couple of days. In the intervening week it seems that all bets (if not wheels) were off.
