[{"type":"text","content":"\n \nRNS Number : 1259G Standard Life Invs Property Inc Tst 24 May 2017 \n\n \nLondon, UK, 23 May 2017\nEdison issues review on Standard Life Inv. Property Income Trust (SLI)\nStandard Life Investments Property Income Trust (SLI) aims to generate both income and capital growth from investing directly in UK commercial property. Its emphasis continues to be on generating above-average income for shareholders and it currently yields 5.4%. In FY16, the dividend was 117% covered by earnings and the manager, Jason Baggaley, is reasonably sanguine about future dividend prospects. Relative performance is measured against the quarterly version of the IPD Monthly Index Funds, which is representative of UK direct property funds. SLI has outperformed this benchmark, in NAV total return terms, over one, three and five years.\n \nSLI's current share price premium to NAV of 8.7% is higher than the averages of the last one, three and five years (range of 4.6% to 7.1%), perhaps reflecting SLI's high real income generation and growth potential in a low-income, low-growth world. The ongoing programme to issue shares at a premium should help improve supply while also serving to enhance the NAV per share for existing shareholders. \nClick here to view the full report.\n \nAll reports published by Edison are available to download free of charge from its website\nwww.edisoninvestmentresearch.com\nAbout Edison: Edison is an investment research and advisory company, with offices in North America, Europe, the Middle East and AsiaPac.
