Legal Entity Identifier: 5493007C3I0O5PJKR078

Information disclosed in accordance with DTR 4.2.2

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

In this, my final Annual Report as Chairman, I am pleased to report another very satisfactory year for the Company. Notwithstanding the continuing global COVID-19 pandemic, economies were strong given the unprecedented levels of fiscal and monetary support provided by governments and central banks and the generally successful rollout of vaccines (at least in the developed world). Against this backdrop, global equity markets were strong - the MSCI AC World Index expressed in sterling, which we use as our benchmark, rose by 24.6%.

Our returns were considerably better. Over the year the Company recorded a total return on net asset value ('NAV') of +32.3%. This outperformance was the result of positive stock selection. The total return to shareholders was slightly higher again at +33.0%. The positive return for the year continues the longer term trend of adding value for shareholders. Over 3 and 5 years the return to shareholders has been 51.6% and 153.3% respectively, in both cases comfortably exceeding the benchmark return. The performance attribution below analyses how the Company achieved its performance relative to its benchmark index. The Investment Managers' report that follows provides a detailed commentary on these figures and discusses activity, performance and the market outlook.

All figures are on a total return basis.

The performance attribution set out above analyses how the Company achieved its performance relative to its benchmark index.

Distribution Policy

The Company's revised dividend policy has now been in place for over five years. As a reminder, the dividend policy aims to pay, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, dividends totalling at least 4% of the NAV of the Company as at the end of the preceding financial year. Where, in the view of the Board, the target dividend is likely to result in a dividend yield that is materially out of line with the wider market, the Board may choose to set the target dividend at a different level that is more in-line with the wider market and other global income trusts and funds.

The Board announced on 1st July 2021 that, in relation to the year commencing 1st July 2021, the Company intends to pay dividends totalling 16.96p per share, which represents a yield of 4.0% of the unaudited NAV as at the 30th June 2021. It is expected that such dividends will be paid by way of four equal distributions, with the first distribution of 4.24p per share for the quarter to 30th September 2021 being paid on 8th October 2021 to shareholders on the register on 3rd September 2021. The ex-dividend date was 2nd September 2021.

The intended dividend for the year commencing 1st July 2021 represents an increase of 28.9% over the total dividend of 13.16p per share payable for the prior financial year.

Investment Policy

At the forthcoming Annual General Meeting ('AGM') the Board is proposing a change to the investment restrictions within the investment policy to amend the current investment restriction so that the aggregate of the Company's top 10 holdings and top 20 holdings will not exceed 45% (currently 35%) and 65% (currently 55%) of total assets, respectively. This will provide the Investment Managers with increased flexibility to manage the Company's portfolio. The proposed new investment restrictions in the investment policy are set out in full in the Appendix to the Notice of AGM on page 93 of the Annual Report, with the amendment highlighted for ease of reference. The new investment restrictions in the investment policy, if approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting, shall come into effect from 27th October 2021.

Share Issuance and Repurchases

As has been the case for several years, our shares traded close to NAV during the year and indeed often traded at a premium. As a result we did not repurchase any shares and during periods when the shares traded at a premium, the Company was able to reissue 9,818,000 shares from Treasury for a total consideration of £38,179,000. In the five years to 30th June 2021 the Company has raised £95,236,000 by reissuing 27,468,000 shares from Treasury. That we have been able to reissue so many shares reflects the gratifying confidence in the Company shown by existing and new shareholders. Since the year-end, the Company has reissued a further 3,776,215 shares from Treasury and issued 1,208,785 new shares for a total consideration of £22,013,000. At the year-end the share price premium to NAV stood at 1.1% and at the time of this report it stands at 3.1%.

A resolution to renew the authority to permit the Company to repurchase shares if necessary will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting ('AGM') in October 2021; resolutions renewing the authorities to issue shares from Treasury and to issue new shares, in both cases at a premium to NAV, and to disapply pre-emption rights over such issues, will also be proposed.

Block Listing

On 27th August 2021, 15 million Ordinary shares of the Company were admitted to the premium segment of the Official List and to trading on its main market. The block listed shares may be issued pursuant to the Company's existing general authority to issue shares on a non pre-emptive basis. The shares may be issued inter alia to satisfy continuing market demand for shares and to manage the premium to NAV at which shares trade. When issued, the new shares will rank pari passu with the existing shares in issue.

Ongoing Charges

The Company's ongoing charges ratio (excluding performance fees) was 0.53% for the year ended 30th June 2021 (2020: 0.55%) There is a performance fee payable of £1,618,000 for the year ended 30th June 2021 (2020: £333,000) and the ongoing charges including the performance fee is 1.59% (2020: 0.66%). Under the current fee arrangements, performance fees are calculated and payable over a four year period. There is an accrual of £5,967,000 included in the financial statements in respect of performance fees that could become payable in future years. The Board reviews regularly the investment management fee paid by the Company and it is currently conducting another detailed review. Should this result in any changes, these will be announced in due course.

Gearing

Gearing is regularly discussed between the Board and the Investment Managers. In 2018, the Board issued £30 million fixed rate 30 year unsecured notes at an annual coupon of 2.93%. On 12th March 2021 the Board issued further £20 million fixed rate 15 year unsecured notes at an annualised coupon of 2.36%. After the issuance of these notes, the Company's total notes amount to £50 million. The Board issued the new notes to take advantage of the market conditions which it considered offered an attractive level of well-priced long term gearing. All the notes are unsecured, which gives the Company increased flexibility to manage its borrowings in the future. There has been no change in the Investment Managers' permitted gearing range, as previously set by the Board, which limits gearing within the range of 5% net cash to 20% geared in normal market conditions.

The gearing level was 1.2% net cash at the start of the period to 0.2% geared at 30th June 2021. During the year gearing ranged from 6.7% geared to 2.8% net cash and made a positive contribution to investment returns of 1.1%. At the time of writing gearing is 0.3%.

Currency Hedging

The Company continues its passive currency hedging strategy (implemented in late 2009) that aims to make stock selection the predominant driver of overall portfolio performance relative to the benchmark, the MSCI World All Countries Index (in sterling terms). This is a risk reduction measure, designed to eliminate most of the differences between the portfolio's currency exposure and that of the Company's benchmark. As a result the returns derived from, and the portfolio's exposure to currencies may differ materially from, that of the Company's competitors, who generally do not undertake such a strategy.

Environmental, Social and Governance Considerations

As detailed in the Investment Managers' report, Environmental, Social and Governance ('ESG') considerations are fully integrated into the Investment Managers' investment process. The Board shares the Investment Managers' view of the importance of ESG factors when making investments for the long term and of the necessity of continued engagement with investee companies throughout the duration of the investment. Further information on the Manager's ESG process and engagement is set out in the ESG Report section within the 2021 Annual Report.

Operations of the Company's Key Service Providers under COVID-19

The Board is pleased to report that, since the on-set of the pandemic in spring 2020 and throughout, the Manager and the Company's other service providers have been able to adjust their business models to continue to accommodate working from home requirements. The Board has been closely monitoring all service arrangements and has received assurances that the Company's operations, to include the management of the portfolio, have continued as normal with no reduction in the level of service provided nor any issues being identified.

The Board

As has already been announced, I will be retiring from the Board at the end of the AGM in October this year and Tristan Hillgarth will replace me as Chairman. Tristan joined the Board in November 2014 and is therefore eligible under the AIC Code of Corporate Governance to serve as Chairman. Gay Collins, who joined the Board in February 2012, will continue to serve as Senior Independent Director for another year. Sarah Whitney, who joined the Board in January 2020, will continue as Chairman of the Audit & Management Engagement Committee and will assume the role of Chairman of the Remuneration Committee from Tristan when he takes over as Chairman of the Board.

As part of the Board's succession planning, the Nominations Committee carried out a recruitment process which led to the appointment of James Macpherson to the Board with effect from 1st April 2021. James was until recently Deputy CIO, Fundamental Active Equities at BlackRock where he led the Global, Thematic, Natural Resources and Health Science strategies and Equity Closed-end funds. He was a senior fund manager at BlackRock and predecessor companies for 35 years, and was co-head of UK Equities from 2001 to 2016.

The Board supports the annual re-election for all Directors, as recommended by the UK Corporate Governance Code, and therefore all Directors will stand for election/re-election at the forthcoming AGM.

Adoption of New Articles of Association

The Company's Articles of Association, the document that specifies the regulations for a company's operations and defines a company's purpose, was last amended following shareholder approval in 2016. Resolution 14 within the Notice of the AGM, which will be proposed as a special resolution, seeks shareholder approval to adopt new Articles of Association (the 'New Articles') in order to update the Company's current Articles of Association (the 'Existing Articles').

A summary of the principal amendments being introduced in the New Articles is set out in the Appendix to the Notice of the AGM on page 93 and 94 of the Annual Report. The proposed amendments, if approved, include the possibility of the Company holding the Company's general meetings by virtual means only. This will facilitate shareholder attendance in situations where they are prevented, through laws or regulations, from attending at a physical location. This format will only be utilised as a contingency to ensure the continued smooth operation of the Company where physical meetings are prohibited; 'virtual-only' meetings will only be held in extremis. Other amendments, which are of a minor, technical or clarifying nature, have been summarised in the Appendix to the Notice of the AGM.

Annual General Meeting

We are holding the Company's AGM at 60 Victoria Embankment, London EC4Y 0JP on 27th October 2021 at 2.30 p.m. We hope to be able to meet shareholders in person this year, but, given the impact of COVID-19, the Board will continue to monitor developments closely and attendance at the physical meeting may still be restricted, depending on the Government's guidelines at the time.

We advise all shareholders to consider their own personal circumstances before attending the AGM in person and we encourage all shareholders to exercise their votes in advance of the meeting by completing and submitting their form of proxy. For shareholders wishing to follow the AGM proceedings but choosing not to attend, we will be able to welcome you through conferencing software. Details on how to register, together with access details, will be available shortly on the Company's website: www.jpmglobalgrowthandincome.co.uk, or by contacting the Company Secretary at invtrusts.cosec@jpmorgan.com. All voting on the resolutions will be conducted on a poll as normal. In addition, shareholders are encouraged to raise any questions in advance of the AGM via the 'Ask the Question' link found under the 'Contact Us' section on the Company's website (www.jpmglobalgrowthandincome.co.uk) or by email at invtrusts.cosec@jpmorgan.com Any questions received will be replied to via the Company Secretary. We will endeavour to answer relevant questions at the meeting or via the website depending on arrangements in place at the time. Due to technological reasons, shareholders viewing the meeting via conferencing software will not be able to vote on the poll.

If there are any changes to the above AGM arrangements, the Company will update shareholders through the Company's website and, as appropriate, through a stock exchange announcement.

Conclusion

Let me say in conclusion that it has been a great pleasure and a privilege to have been a Director of the Company since 2010 and Chairman since 2015. I would like to thank my Board colleagues for all their help and support over these years. Good investment performance has been the vital ingredient to ensure the success of the Company and I am delighted that the Investment Managers have proved to be such able stock pickers. I should like to thank all shareholders for supporting the Board over the period during which I have been involved and I would also like to thank J.P. Morgan for the effective management and administration of the Trust over the time I have been involved.

As I retire, I believe that the future of the Company is bright. As ever, the global economy faces significant challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic is not yet at an end, particularly for less developed countries, although one can only admire the brilliance of scientists who have developed such effective vaccines. Governments have to decide when and how to unwind the emergency programmes that they have put in place to sustain economic activity. In addition, meeting the challenge of climate change will test us all in the coming years.

However, our Investment Managers have demonstrated their ability to rise to every challenge and I expect them to continue to be able to identify successful companies in an environment that will be constantly evolving.

INVESTMENT MANAGERS' REPORT

A year for the history books - for mankind and markets

The past 12 months have been remarkable for many reasons. The COVID-19 pandemic has had widespread and devastating impacts on public health and global economic activity, but it has also inspired remarkable innovation, manifesting itself not just in the rapid development and roll-out of several viable vaccines, but also in the many imaginative ways that individuals and businesses have adapted to the constraints imposed by the virus. Technology and social media have been deployed to alleviate social isolation, which in turn has facilitated wider public debate on issues such as the environmental crisis. Such ingenuity and determination in the face of adversity is surely cause for optimism about the potential for other positive developments in fields such as climate change mitigation and medical research.

Vaccine rollouts, and the greater freedoms they have heralded for businesses and individuals, underpinned an exceptionally strong run for global equities in H2 2020 and early 2021. More recently, concerns about the risk of higher interest rates and the more contagious delta variant dented investor sentiment, but markets took solace in persistently upbeat economic data and unexpectedly robust company results.

Our focus on key long-term structural trends and good, attractively priced companies has continued unabated throughout this challenging period. The pandemic has served as a powerful reminder that change is ever present, and that we must strive constantly to identify and understand the implications of such disruption. For example, the pandemic-induced trends towards living, working and exercising on-line and accessing services such as healthcare remotely, will persist. This brings with it risks for some businesses, and new avenues of growth for others. By focusing on the evolution and direction of long-term structural changes, rather than trying to predict developments over the next few quarters, and being distracted by short-term noise, we aim to take full advantage of the investment opportunities these trends generate.

Portfolio Review and Spotlight on Stocks

At the onset of the pandemic, we owned very high-quality businesses in sectors such as Media and Technology Hardware and Software, that we expected to benefit from established long-term trends. These businesses received fresh, in some cases startling, impetus from the pandemic to the extent that by autumn 2020, several were trading at substantial premiums to what we believed to be their intrinsic value. At the same time, many solid businesses in more economically sensitive sectors such as industrials, aircraft manufacturing, travel and banks were trading at significant, and, in our view unjustified, discounts to their true worth. We saw this as a meaningful opportunity, which we sought to exploit fully, by trimming our positions in some of the pandemic's biggest structural winners and using the proceeds to gain greater exposure to high-quality businesses in these cyclical, unloved and undervalued areas of the market.

This strategy proved to be highly effective, as evidenced by our very strong performance against our benchmark over the past 12 months. The Company's benchmark, MSCI All Country World Index, rose 24.1% in Pound Sterling. At the same time, the Company's share price rose 31.8%. Our stock selection contributed positively across most sectors over the past year, with returns enhanced by our exposure to both quality cyclical stocks and to companies set to benefit from long term structural trends.

Many of the cyclical names that we purchased in mid-2020 have subsequently outperformed the market significantly, especially in the past six months, as vaccine programs dramatically improved the global economic outlook and bolstered investor confidence in these businesses. Our purchase of Lyft, the US rideshare company, is a great example. It was our best performing stock over the past 12 months, more than doubling in value since acquisition. We were attracted to Lyft by its strong balance sheet and its large share of a concentrated market, which ensured the company was well placed to survive the pandemic, despite market scepticism. And as economies began to reopen, and riders returned, the market's assessment of its near-term prospects improved dramatically. We still own the stock, as we expect it to continue to perform well as demand reverts to pre-pandemic levels, and profitability improves accordingly. In our view, Lyft's longer-term growth outlook is also very favourable, as it is likely to be a lead player in the development of the autonomous (driverless) vehicle rideshare market.

Another example of a name we added last year is American Express. This is a high quality business, which benefits from a consumer recovery as card spending recovers. However they were hit harder than most in the pandemic as large portion of their business comes from Travel & Entertainment. We purchased the stock as we believed that this spend would recover. Importantly, whilst we were uncertain exactly where this spending would return first - be it airlines, hotels, or eating out - with this company we knew we would capture that recovery, as regardless of category, the spend would occur on their card. The stock has been a very strong performer since we purchased it.

Our positions in companies benefiting from long term structural changes, especially tech-related themes, also continued to enhance returns over the period. The Company's holdings in the Semiconductor space did exceptionally well. Demand for semiconductors has been robust across the board, but most notably from the Automotive and Industrial sectors, and we expect the increasing use of semiconductors in electric vehicles (EVs) and smart factories to underpin further growth in demand for chips. We diversified our exposure to this burgeoning industry via with the acquisition of names such as Applied Materials, a US company that supplies materials to semiconductor manufacturers. This position nicely complements our holdings in end product manufacturers such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company and its Dutch competitor, NXP Semiconductors. Global demand for semiconductors has been so strong that supply shortages have created bottlenecks in some industries. In the past, this has triggered instances of double ordering, which can pose a risk to earnings estimates. We have been monitoring the entire supply chain closely in recent months for signs of such practices, but to date, we have found no evidence of inflated demand, and we continue to hold these companies.

Alphabet, the parent of Google, the US online advertising behemoth, was another significant contributor to performance over the past year. The company was hurt at the beginning of the pandemic as businesses reduced advertising expenditures. However, as the world adapted to the constraints imposed by the virus, advertising spending returned to more normal levels, and Google increased its market share. In addition, YouTube, another Alphabet subsidiary, has gone from strength to strength, and Alphabet's Google Cloud Platform continues to see exceptional growth, as more businesses use the cloud for data processing and storage.

Innovation is also proceeding at pace within the Healthcare sector, as evidenced by the rapid development of several different, but equally effective coronavirus vaccines. Within this sector, we favour businesses with a good track record of producing new and creative solutions to significant health challenges. Among our holdings, the US pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly had an exceptional year. This company has seen encouraging results from clinical trials of new treatments for diabetes, a disease which is likely to afflict increasing numbers of people over time. More recently, there has been progress on its breakthrough treatment for Alzheimer's Disease, which appears likely to receive support from the US Federal Drug Administration (FDA). This will open a whole new market to Eli Lilly. Novo Nordisk, the Danish pharma company, was another notable contributor to returns. Like Eli Lilly, it focuses on diabetes treatments and its new anti-obesity drug, Wegovy, was recently approved for use in the US. This is the first drug treatment for one of the Western world's most significant health issues and will no doubt prove very profitable for Novo Nordisk.

We are very pleased with the performance of these and other holdings, which more than offset the adverse impact of disappointing returns in some other areas. Insurance was the most challenged sector on a relative basis, as our holdings lagged the broader sector. Munich Re, a German reinsurance company, detracted most, for two reasons. Losses from natural disasters were particularly heavy in 2020, in large part due to a number of hurricanes and other catastrophes that struck the US. The company also sustained significant losses from COVID-related claims, and its share price remains under pressure due to fears about the extent of further claims arising from the pandemic. However, Munich Re has an exceptionally strong capital position, the management team has a proven willingness to return capital to shareholders and the company has been one of the best performers in the sector over the last 5 years on a total return (share price performance and dividends) basis. We continue to own the shares.

The Automotive sector also detracted from relative returns, mainly because we do not hold Tesla, the US electric vehicles ('EV') and battery manufacturer, which we believe is overvalued. While the operational performance of this company has surpassed all expectations over the past couple of years, in our view, its stellar share price gains has taken the stock well above its intrinsic value. We continue to prefer Volkswagen, the German auto producer, which is also developing EVs. After some teething problems, these vehicles are now coming to market, and we expect they will eventually earn Volkswagen a significant share of the EV market. Yet despite this favourable outlook, the stock is valued as if the company will cease to exist in a decade.

Portfolio positioning and outlook

The particularly good performance of many of the cyclical stocks we acquired in the past year has prompted us to take some profits, reducing our exposure to many of these names. Holdings that we have trimmed recently include Norfolk Southern, a US rail company, and Adidas, the sportswear brand. However, there are many other high quality companies, with attractive long-term metrics, whose short-term outlook remains clouded by the lingering effects of the pandemic. We see many opportunities to buy these so-called 'reopening' stocks at very reasonable valuations.

For example, we have recently added to our holding in Booking.com, which is now a world leader in the provision of accommodation and other travel services. We also opened a position in Airbus, the French aircraft manufacturer, due to our confidence that demand for new aircraft will surpass current expectations over the next decade, as demand for air travel returns. This positive assessment is based in part on our conversations with over 500 businesses about their future corporate travel plans. We found that although many forecast a fall in the number of flights taken to attend internal company meetings, they expect total expenditure on flights to be greater in 2023 than in 2019, as client visits resume and firms send representatives to trade shows and conferences. Companies also foresee a move towards more business class travel - a shift designed to improve staff retention and overcome employees' reluctance to travel in the post-pandemic era. This forecast rise in demand for flights, especially higher margin business class travel, will bolster profitability in the airline industry generally. Airbus, which continues to take market share from Boeing, its primary competitor, will certainly benefit from the associated increase in demand for aircraft.

We have also taken other opportunities to acquire good, but significantly undervalued, businesses in the Industrial and Banks sectors. For instance, we have recently added to Schneider Electric, a French manufacturer of energy management and industrial automation systems, Trane Technologies, a US supplier of air conditioning and heating products, and Wells Fargo, a US bank. However, we continue to avoid stocks we view as overvalued. To us, there appears to be significant risk to the valuations of some exceptionally high growth names, particularly in the US Software space.

We utilised gearing tactically during the review period, especially in autumn 2020, when we saw so many opportunities. However, after such an exceptional year for equity markets, we have since reduced the level of gearing, on the expectation that some market volatility is likely after such a favourable run. The most likely trigger for such volatility will be concerns about inflation. Investors are already worried that if inflation proves persistent, central banks will be forced to raise interest rates quickly to dampen inflationary pressures. Higher rates are likely to have significant adverse implications for equity valuations, particularly for the most expensive stocks, whose elevated multiples are often said to be 'justified' by record low interest rates. Concerns on this front have already unsettled markets and we expect further bouts of volatility over coming months. So, for the moment, we are biding our time on the redeployment of gearing, as we await more clarity on the inflation and interest rate outlook.

These percolating concerns about inflation and higher rates suggest that the global economic backdrop has shifted from its recovery phase to a more mid-cycle mode. Mid-cycle dynamics tend to support stock price rises, as well as drive-up interest rates along the yield curve, and, even if the trajectory will not be entirely smooth, we expect equity markets to continue making strong gains as this cycle progresses. It is therefore more important than ever for us to stay fully invested and focused on our global search for great businesses that will provide superior returns and outperform over the long-term.

We believe your Company's performance, recently and longer-term, attests to the effectiveness of our disciplined process and in-depth stock analysis. Today, we have what we believe is a nicely balanced portfolio, focusing on quality companies, across a variety of sectors and geographies. And the very broad opportunity set provided by global equity markets continues to offer many other exciting and attractive investment possibilities. We therefore feel well-positioned to build on the success of the past 12 months.

We would like to thank you for your support and look forward to continuing our partnership.

The Directors have reviewed the compliance with debt covenants in assessing the going concern and viability of the Company.
