  • The incorporation date was 20th November 1902.

  • The fund manager is Jeremiah Buckley who joined Janus in 1998.

  • The trust does not have a benchmark. The Board reviews performance against the index which it considers to be the most relevant, the Russell 1000 Value Index, together with peer group comparators (in sterling terms). The aim is to provide investors with above average dividend income from predominantly US equities which means that investment performance can diverge, possibly quite materially in either direction, from this index. The Board also compares performance against the S&P 500 Index whilst having regard to the very different make-up of this index and its inclusion of many of the fast growing tech companies which often do not pay dividends.

  • The Association of Investment Companies (AIC) classifies companies into sectors as a way of grouping companies with common characteristics.
