Dividends
Excellent track record

Temple Bar has an excellent long-term track record of dividend growth, and in 2010 increased its dividend for the 27th consecutive year. This growth has been achieved despite some years of low dividend growth in the underlying portfolio, notably in 2000 and 2009 when many companies were actually reducing their dividend.
