Finding Value in the UK with Simon Gergel of the Merchants Trust

Finding Value in the UK with Simon Gergel of the Merchants Trust The UK equity market is one of the most attractive markets in the world for income investors - and right now the market looks cheap. Investment trusts are a great way to capitalise on the market’s income credentials while outsourcing portfolio management to an expert. MoneyWeek deputy digital editor Rupert Hargreaves talks to Simon Gergel, portfolio manager at the UK-focused Merchants Trust, with 95% of assets invested in UK equities and the remainder in Europe. Last year the trust was one of the few to beat the market, with the value of its assets rising 10.5% for the 12 months to the end of November, compared to a return of 6.5% for its benchmark, the FTSE All Share Index. Over the six months to the end of April, the trust’s net asset value has increased by 14.1% compared to 12.5% for its benchmark. Today the trust trades at a slight premium to NAV and yields just under 5%. MoneyWeek videos are designed to help our viewers become better investors.
