Investment summary

City Natural Resources High Yield Trust (CYN) is one of only three UK-registered investment trusts to focus exclusively on the natural resources sector. It has a strong long-term performance record returning 605.9% (NAV total return) and 505.5% (share price total return) since 2003 vs total returns of 264.8% and 97.2% from its composite benchmark and FTSE World Indices. CYN pays quarterly dividends and, with growth in revenue reserves of 15.3% to 6.8p during the year to 31 December, we believe it is well positioned to provide double-digit dividend growth again this year (2011 dividend: 4.22p), having already doubled its dividend during the last four years.
