Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

THE investment manager Grahams Rintoul is launching a high- income trust that will invest in convertible shares. It will aim for a yield of 8.5 per cent. The managers are pledging that the fund will not have any rights issues during its six-year life.

Grahams Rintoul says that there have been examples where other trusts have launched rights issues once their share prices are trading at a premium to asset value and the company believes this is unfair to shareholders because it dilutes their holdings. Grahams Rintoul already manages two other investment trusts, the Grahams Rintoul Investment Trust and North America Gas.
