Following the Morningstar OBSR Analyst Ratings Meeting on 12th June 2014, we have moved the Invesco Perpetual High Income fund to a Morningstar OBSR Analyst Rating™ of Neutral. The fund’s Gold rating had previously been placed Under Review following the announcement that former manager, Neil Woodford, was leaving Invesco Perpetual and that Mark Barnett was to become manager. Mr Barnett subsequently became manager in March 2014. He is a talented fund manager with a strong track record on similar mandates; however, in managing this fund and the Invesco Perpetual Income fund his assets under management have increased by over £20bn. Along with the departure of Mr Woodford, the UK equity team at Invesco Perpetual has also recently lost another fund manager and two analysts, departures that Mr Barnett has moved swiftly to replace. However, given the considerable increase in assets under Mr Barnett’s management that may affect his investment approach, and the changes to his team, we believe a Neutral rating to be appropriate at this time.
