TwentyFour Income Fund Limited
TwentyFour Income Fund Limited is a London listed closed-ended investment company which targets less liquid, higher yielding UK and European asset-backed securities (ABS). This part of the fixed income market remains largely overlooked and therefore we believe represents attractive relative value.
Investment Objective
The Company aims to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns, principally through income distributions by investing in a diversified portfolio of UK and European asset-backed securities.
Key Characteristics
The Company has a target annual net total return of between 6% and 9% per annum, which since 24 February 2023 has included quarterly dividends with an annual target each financial year of 8% of the Issue Price. Realisation elections may be made at three year intervals whereby company shareholders may elect to realise all or part of their holdings of ordinary shares or, alternatively, continue their investment in the investment company.
Investment Approach
The Company is actively managed and invests in a diversified portfolio of predominantly UK and European Asset Backed Securities. Uninvested cash or surplus capital or assets may be invested on a temporary basis in cash and/ or a range of assets including money market instruments and government bonds. Efficient portfolio management techniques can be employed such as currency hedging, interest rate hedging and the use of derivatives such as credit default swaps to help mitigate market volatility.
The Company is not managed in reference to any benchmark index. Shareholders may elect to realise all or part of their holdings of Ordinary Shares every three years. In the event that investors elect to realise all or part of their holdings of Ordinary Shares, the Company may, but shall not be obliged to offer to redeem, repurchase or purchase those Ordinary Shares. Any Ordinary Shares that are not redeemed, repurchased or purchased shall be converted into Realisation Shares. Assets and liabilities attributable to Shareholders holding Realisation Shares will be managed as part of a separate realisation pool and in accordance with an orderly realisation programme with the aim of making progressive returns of cash to the holders of Realisation Shares as soon as practicable. This is only a summary; details of the investment policy, including investment restrictions, are set out in the Prospectus.
