LawDebenture

We were incredibly proud to celebrate 135 years of being listed on the London Stock Exchange. CEO Denis Jackson closed the market surrounded by COO Trish Houston, CTO Spencer Knightsbridge, Chairman Robert Hingley, LawDeb alum, guests from firms listed on our original 1889 Prospects (in their current guise!), Janus Henderson Investors Joint Portfolio Managers James Henderson and Laura Foll, VIP guests and our brokers.

We were joined by LSE CEO Julia Hoggett who delivered a wonderful speech, thank you!

Listed on the FTSE250, our objective is to achieve long-term capital growth in real terms and steadily increasing income, with the aim of achieving a higher rate of total return that the FTSE All-Share Index. We have outperformed this benchmark by [67]% over ten years (as at 30th November 2024), with a track record of increasing or maintaining dividends to shareholders for 45 years.

We are a unique investment trust, with a diversified portfolio of majority-UK equity stocks managed by James Henderson and Laura Foll of Janus Henderson, supported by ownership of Independent Professional Services (IPS), a set of independent governance services including pension trustee, corporate trust and corporate services.

Denis Jackson, Chief Executive Officer of Law Debenture, commented:

“We are delighted to celebrate 135 years on the London Stock Exchange. This milestone reflects our proud heritage but also our ongoing ability to adapt to and thrive in the constantly evolving investment landscape. With our well-diversified investment portfolio and ongoing investment in IPS, Law Debenture is resilient by design and we look forward to continue delivering strong long-term performance and returns for our shareholders in the years to come.”
