Gartmore UK Focus - Suspended
By ROBERT HARLEY 07/12/2008
Following a review of their staffing levels, Gartmore have announced that Ashley Willing, one the two named fund managers for UK Focus, has been made redundant. The performance of the fund has struggled in recent years and more recently, significantly under performed its peer group. Going forward the fund will be managed solely by Simon King. In light of these changes we have suspended our 2 star rating on the fund.
