Sid Chand Lall, manager of the IFSL Marlborough Multi Cap Income fund, talks to us about finding income opportunities in the UK's smaller – but growing – companies. He describes how he finds profitable companies and explains how dividends can help offset the erosion caused by inflation. Sid also highlights one smaller company and two medium-sized ones in the portfolio: Ricardo Plc, Paragon Banking Group and Drax Group.
