LONDON, April 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

Edison Investment Research, a leading international investment research firm, announces the initiation of full coverage of Henderson International Income Trust 

Highlights of the analysis on Henderson International Income Trust by Edison's investment trusts analysts Sarah Godfrey and Andrew Mitchell are as follows:

Henderson International Income Trust (HINT) invests outside the UK to provide investors (who may already have sufficient UK exposure) with a high and growing dividend income as well as the potential for capital growth. With 60 stocks drawn from three broad regions - Europe, Asia Pacific and the Americas - its manager describes it as a "global best ideas portfolio", drawing on the long experience of the firm's global equity income team. A relatively new trust, launched in April 2011, HINT is the only member of its Global Equity Income sector to exclude the UK, and has outperformed all but one of its peers over one and three years.

Henderson International Income Trust aims to provide a high and rising level of dividends as well as capital appreciation over the long term from a focused and internationally diversified portfolio of securities (predominantly listed equities and fixed income) outside the UK. It is benchmarked against the MSCI World ex-UK index.
