Unit trust is closed down
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.THORNTON Unit Managers has closed down its cash unit trust and returned pounds 150,000 to 36 investors. The company said the fund was too small and was no longer able to obtain attractive rates of interest on the wholesale money markets.
Cash unit trusts have attracted investors because they have been offering higher rates of interest than bank and building society accounts.
