Portfolio manager succession

Peter Hewitt has been responsible for the management of the Company's Income and Growth portfolios (the "portfolios") since their inception in April 2008 and has managed them with great knowledge, dedication, and enthusiasm. He has also communicated the Company's progress to shareholders regularly, engagingly, and openly.  Change, in the shape of Peter's retirement, has been inevitable and he has given notice of his desire to retire. Naturally the Board and Columbia Threadneedle Investments (the "Investment Manager") have been planning for this for some time, while acknowledging that managing Peter's succession would be no easy task.

There have been many changes to the industry and, indeed, at the Investment Manager over the past 17 years.  One of the more recent of these relate to its strategic decision to integrate its various multi-asset and asset allocation capabilities into a single EMEA Multi-Asset Solutions team, which is headed up by Paul Niven (fund manager for F&C Investment Trust PLC). This change provides the Company with the opportunity to draw on the team's substantial experience.

From 1 June 2025, the beginning of the Company's next financial year, the portfolios will be managed by London-based managers Adam Norris and Paul Green, supported by Peter Hewitt until his retirement from the Investment Manager at the end of October 2025 and the broader EMEA Multi-Asset Solutions team (of which they are members). Adam and Paul have a combined 35 years of investment experience and currently manage a number of income and global growth multi-asset, multi-manager portfolios with assets totalling circa £1bn.  While the new portfolio managers have some different perspectives on how the portfolios should be positioned, the Company will continue to invest in a broad spread of investment companies, covering a variety of geographies, sectors and investment managers.

Chair of the Company, David Warnock, said: "The Board thanks Peter for his years of service to shareholders and wishes him a long and happy retirement when the time comes and looks forward to working with Adam and Paul on the evolution of the portfolios in the best interests of all shareholders."
