The European Smaller Companies Trust aims to turn investments in Europe’s dynamic smaller businesses into capital growth. Evidence* shows that smaller companies have historically achieved greater growth, as a group, than their larger peers. That’s why the trust’s team of expert managers harness regional experience and diverse information sources to find Europe’s undiscovered and promising businesses. Alongside long-term growth, ESCT offers regular income in the form of quarterly dividends. The trust aims to deliver at least 5% of its Net Asset Value (NAV) each year as income.
