BlackRock Sustainable American Income Trust plc (LON:BRSA) offers a unique opportunity to invest in a fund that focuses on both value and sustainability.
The trust’s three managers, Tony DeSpirito, David Zhao and Lisa Yang, aim to deliver an attractive level of income and long-term capital growth from a portfolio of attractively valued, high-quality, dividend-paying companies, which have favourable ESG credentials either as leaders, improvers or ‘sustainability enablers’. BRSA’s managers are finding attractive opportunities due to the historically wide valuation gap between value stocks and the broad US market.
Data from BlackRock show that since 1978, following a peak in the interest rate cycle, which is the consensus outcome given moderating US inflation, quality stocks outperformed over the subsequent one, two and three years; this should also bode well for the trust’s relative performance.
