I thought the new regulation came into effect tomorrow (3rd).

On edit: it appears it is 1st January - HL are effecting it from 3rd.

Hi, I was just able to buy 1322 shares although the KID did appear as an an error page. With Halifax I just had to confirm I had read it and then I could buy.

Just tried to top up a few - Can't
Company hasn't made available the document - 'Key Investor Information Document' that is required for the new compliance regulations-

'Costs and Charges Disclosure Document' is available.

Thus buying is 'not allowed' at the moment.

End result is that 'compliance' is distorting the market for HFEL at the moment.

I had a moan at Barclays and I note that my divi was paid into my account today. Bad delay, but Barclays never seem to pay on the due date and dividends are always delayed without exception. I never have a problem with TD Direct.

7 day delay? Ring up and play hell.

Thanks for all the information.
Looks like Barclays are still be having problems with the new platform as my account still not showing any dividend.

[pvb] 07/9/2017 13:27

Dividend received 31 August.

[petewy] 07/9/2017 12:37

divi on 31st....Cheque?

[pj fozzie] 07/9/2017 12:02

Got the dividend credited to my account with Interactive Investor last Thursday afternoon.

Cheers,
PJ

Should be. I got a cheque last week.

[piwood] 07/9/2017 10:47

Has the latest dividend been paid into accounts yet ?

[nimbo1] 03/8/2017 19:35

yep another large divi banked - its a hard life in the asian equity income space.

[aleman] 03/8/2017 14:06

Thought these were having an off day but I've just realised they went ex-dividend.

"City cynics say the six most expensive words in the English language are: ‘It will be different this time.’ That’s worth recalling when this month marks the 20th anniversary of the 1997 Asian crisis, where a domino effect saw currencies collapse across the region and stock market shocks reverberate around the world."

Reminds me. That's when I first invested in HFEL.

quite weird to have the dividend declaration 2 months in advance. Im sure it's normally a few weeks. anyways not complaining. core hold for me here.

[petewy] 22/5/2017 09:18

U'm out of HGG and into HEFL. This one for 10 shares mean HGG is £23+ a share which is Djia value

Hi Aleman,

I am very happy with steady as she goes. The last 12 months have seen a strong recovery in the share price here and I expect only a small increase in the dividend this August.

I have decided not to add to my HFEL holding for the moment - the political situation needs to improve first. Clearly the market thinks North Korea and the USA are indulging in political posturing but this has the potential to blow up into a real crisis. Any unfortunate incidents could easily knock Asian share prices hard.

I do hold HFEL for the long term in my ISA portfolio. As I mostly specialise in stock picking UK companies this Investment Trust is a core holding as it gives my portfolio exposure to Asian markets.

At the moment I would only look to add to HFEL on any sharp pullbacks.

Interims underperform the market a bit but revenue looking like 23p this year so the 5.1p quarterly dividend looks set to increase a bit in the near future. The revenue reserve is up £2m compared to the same time last year. That's a bit less than 2p added to the bank to pay out later when times are tough. So, no fireworks but steady as she goes, hopefully.

[aleman] 02/2/2017 12:41

Another interesting presentation. Thanks, Goldpig.

Hi,

The HFEL shareholders meeting on Thursday 15th December 2016 can be seen online using the link below. You will need to scroll down the page as the AGM's of various Henderson Trusts seem to be lumped together this year.

A really good presentation and well worth watching.
