Change of Name
F&C UK High Income Trust PLC (the "Company") announces that
it has changed its name to BMO UK High Income Trust PLC with
immediate effect.
The Company's shares will trade under the new name on the London
Stock Exchange with effect from 8.00 a.m. on 12 November 2018.
The Company's trading instrument display mnemonic ("TIDM") will
change to BHI, BHIB and BHIU for the Company's Ordinary shares, B
shares and Units respectively. The ISIN and SEDOL numbers will
remain unchanged.
The Company's website address will be amended to reflect the
change of name and will be available at www.bmoukhighincome.com
from 12 November 2018.
Shareholders are unaffected by the change of name and existing
share certificates should be retained and will remain valid. Any
new share certificates issued will bear the name BMO UK High Income
Trust PLC. The investment policy and process remain unchanged with
Philip Webster as Fund Manager.
Background
The Company's Manager, F&C Investment Business Limited
("F&C"), became part of the BMO Financial Group in 2014. BMO
was founded over 200 years ago as Bank of Montreal and is now the
eighth largest bank by assets in North America. It provides a broad
range of financial products to over 12 million customers worldwide.
BMO has decided that it will now re-brand those of its savings plan
products and legal entities which currently operate under the
"F&C" prefix to "BMO", with its savings plans now benefiting
from the scale and resources of its larger parent company.
Many of the Company's shareholders invest through the F&C
savings plans. With the F&C brand changing to BMO the Company's
Board has therefore resolved that continuing to align with the
brand of its Manager, as well as the savings plans, avoids
unnecessary confusion, and ensures the Company maximises the
benefits resulting from broader investment by BMO.
