PS - There are many sterling smaller cap dividend providers out there, several of them former income trusts.

For example, one that I've held for years is ENF. - current yield (including the just announced 10% dividend increase) is 5.8%.

Again, it is interesting to look at the long term total returns of this one versus the far more well known and considered more Holy Grailish by many,  ENB.

The 5, 10 and 13+ year returns (back to Oct 9,2003 which is the earliest data point for ENF in longrundata)  for ENF versus ENb are:

5 Year ENB- 12.3%, ENF - 16.4%

10 Year ENB - 14.9%, ENF - 18.7%

13 Year 3 Month ENB -  16.1%,  ENF - 17.7%.

A couple more names you may wish to look at are ECI, EIF and MSI. (I own them all). Cheers, and best of luck with your diversification.
