Type STS Global Income and Growth Trust plc (“the Company”) is an investment company as defined by Section 833 of the Companies Act 2006 and carries on business as an investment trust. The Company’s shares are listed and traded on the London Stock Exchange and the Company is subject to the UK Listing Rules. Typically, at any given time on any given day, the price you pay for a share will be higher than the price at which you could sell it. The Company operates a discount and premium control mechanism, which aims to ensure that, under normal market conditions, the price of a share will closely reflect the value of the net assets attributable to the share. Objectives STS Global Income and Growth Trust plc aims to achieve rising income and long-term capital growth through investment in a balanced portfolio constructed from global equities. The manager typically runs a high conviction 35-55 stock portfolio that is unconstrained by geography, sector, stock or market capitalisation. Borrowings The Company may borrow to purchase assets. This will magnify any gains or losses made by the Company. Intended retail investor Investors with no specific financial expertise seeking income with the potential for income and capital growth over the long term, by investing in global equities. Financial experience is not considered a necessity. However, investors must at least understand a product where capital is at risk and have the capacity to bear losses (possibly total) on their original investment, accepting risk to their capital. The product may be suitable as a component of a portfolio and for investors who are looking to set aside their capital for the long term (at least five years), though shares may be sold on a daily basis. What are the risks and what could I get in return? Risk Indicator Lower risk1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Higher risk 4 The risk indicator assumes you keep the product for 5 years. The actual risk can vary significantly if you cash in at an early stage and you may get back less. You may not be 5 able to sell your investmenteasily or you may have to sell at a price that significantly impacts on how much you get back. The summary risk indicator is a guide to the level of risk of this product compared to other products. It shows how likely it is that the product will lose money because of movements in the markets. We have classified this product as 5 out of 7, which is a medium risk class. This rates the potential losses from future performance at a medium level. However, the summary risk indicator only reflects historic share price volatility of the Company’s shares. It excludes other risks inherent in the product and, therefore, does not show the full risk to the investor. Capital may be at risk as the value of investments may go down as well as up and there can be no guarantee that investors will get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. This product does not include any protection from future market performance so you could lose some or all of your investment. Performance for the purposes of this Key Information Document has been based on share price total return with dividends reinvested.

The scenarios shown illustrate how your investment could perform. You can compare them with the scenarios of other products. The scenarios are calculated on historical performance figures based on the last 5 years when markets have been particularly strong and might not be replicated in the future. When there has been steady and consistent growth over the relevant period of time it can make the performance scenarios look overly optimistic; past performance is not a guide to future performance and future returns could be significantly worse than shown. The returns shown are produced by applying a prescribed formula to the Company’s returns over the last 5 years. They are not intended to show that the past performance of the Company is expected to continue or to indicate which scenario is most likely over the time period shown. The scenarios presented are an estimate of future performance based on evidence from the past on how the value of this investment varies, and are not an exact indicator. What you get will vary depending on how the market performs and how long you keep the investment. The stress scenario outcome, which is calculated using a prescribed formula based on the Company’s worst performing days over the last 5 years, shows what you may have got back in extreme market circumstances. The figures shown include all the costs of the product itself, but may not include the costs that you pay to your advisor or distributor. The figures do not take into account your personal tax situation, which may also affect how much you get back. Details of previous performance scenarios and a ten year performance chart are available on the Company’s website – https://www.stsplc.co.uk/literature/#KID What happens if the Company is unable to pay out? Any default by the Company would have a material impact on the value of your shares. The Company’s shares are traded on the London Stock Exchange. Therefore, as a shareholder of the Company you would not be able to make a claim to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme in the event that the Company is unable to pay out. A default by the Company or any of the underlying holdings could affect the value of your investment. What are the costs? The Reduction in Yield (RIY) shows what impact the total costs you pay will have on the investment return you might get. The total costs take into account one-off, ongoing and incidental costs. The amounts shown here are the cumulative costs of the product itself, for three different holding periods. They include potential early exit penalties. The figures assume you invest £10,000. The figures are estimates and may change in the future. Costs over time The person selling you or advising you about this product may charge you other costs. If so, this person will provide you with information about these costs, and the impact that all costs will have on your investment over time. Depending on how you buy these shares you may incur other costs, including broker commission, platform fees and Stamp Duty. The distributor will provide you with additional documents where necessary.
