US-FOCUSED peer-to-peer investment trust Ranger Direct Lending has reported a twentieth consecutive month of positive returns for January as its net asset value (NAV) improved on December.

The latest monthly update from the investment trust, which focuses on platforms providing secured finance for businesses, reported 0.82 per cent growth in its NAV for January 2017, up from 0.58 per cent in December 2016.

It also took the growth rate back closer to the 0.83 per cent recorded in November 2016 after a dip at the end of the year.

The investment company has already announced an interim dividend of 28.51p per ordinary share for the three-month period to 31 December 2016 to be paid on 7 April 2017.
