 |
|
Managed by Robin Hepworth, the Amity International Fund recently won the prestigious Lipper award for the best global fund over five years and it has outperformed the global sector by 82.06 per cent in the ten years to March 2013.
Ecclesiastical is a signatory to the Stewardship Code and also has in-house expertise in active ownership and stewardship.
For example, they cast 36 votes in the UK and 22 overseas from September to December 2012, despite it being traditionally the quietest quarter of the year for shareholder voting.
A significant proportion of these votes were on corporate governance issues, with a particular focus on opposing excessive executive pay and bonuses.
Ecclesiastical’s policy is to vote in support of company management except where proposals are considered to be in breach of corporate governance best practice, or are viewed as not being in the economic interests of shareholders.
