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.

Henderson pension funds down pounds 500m

Henderson Administration's shares fell 13p to 1,235p as it revealed another pounds 500m fall in pension funds under management and half-year profits of pounds 9.8m, down from pounds 11.2m last time. Dugald Eadie, who took over as group managing director a year ago, insisted that "the tide has turned" and that institutions were considering Henderson as a manager. In 1990 pension funds made up pounds 5.3bn of Henderson's pounds 8.3bn funds under management, compared to just pounds 3bn out of pounds 13.6bn today. Henderson has maintained profitability by boosting other areas of business including its successful US joint venture Seligman Henderson, where funds doubled to pounds 1.29bn. The half-year dividend was held at 13.5p.
