Reasons to Buy
Unique
The UK’s only listed Canadian equity fund focused on high income – admitted to the FTSE UK All-Share Index in 2011.
Proven
Outperformance since inception in 2006, delivered by a private and independent investment manager based in Toronto, Canada.
Diversification
UK investors are underexposed to Canadian equities – Canada is one of the largest investable economies in the developed world.
High Income
Canadian equities offer high yields compared to other developed markets and MCT has consistently paid in excess of 5p per annum since 2017.
Stability
Canada is a member of the G7 and offers one of the most stable political and financial systems in the world.
Governance
Independent Board of Directors re-elected by shareholders annually to protect their interests.
Exposure to Key Canadian Industries
Canadian companies are amongst the world leaders across the real estate, financial and energy & renewables sectors
Real Estate
Canada’s real estate market is underpinned by a stable economy and a relatively low unemployment rate. Immigration and a highly educated workforce support ongoing demand and growth in foreign investment.
Financials
One of the world’s most sophisticated and well-capitalized banking systems. Canada’s banks consistently paid dividends without cuts or suspensions through the Global Financial Crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Energy & Renewables
Canada is a global leader in the production and use of energy from renewables, oil and natural gas. Canadian companies that focus on wind and solar are benefiting from the increasing demand for clean power from governments and corporations while Canadian oil and gas companies are benefiting from sustained demand and constrained supply of oil and natural gas.
