The UK Investor Magazine was delighted to welcome Nick Britton, Research Director at the AIC, to delve into the AIC’s Dividend Heroes; those investment trusts that have increased their dividends every year for 20 years or more.

Get the full list of Dividend Heroes here.

We explore the underlying asset classes the AIC’s dividend heroes invest in and why these asset classes are supportive of consistently growing dividends.

Nick explains the structural advantages of investment trusts, which allow them to pay and even increase dividends even during periods when the underlying portfolio companies may pause or cut their dividends.

We touch on a selection of Dividend Heroes and the characteristics they share, and how they differ in terms of dividend yields and dividend growth.

In addition to the Dividend Heroes, the AIC track’s ‘next generation’ Dividend Heroes that have grown their dividend for more than 10 years but less than 20 years. We compare the underlying asset classes of the next generation Dividend Heroes and reflect on the evolution of investment trusts over the years.
