Investment process


This relatively unconstrained fund structure provides the underlying managers with a large degree of flexibility and consequently allows them to take a contrarian view and is not comstrained to the benchmark the FTSE All Share Index. The investment process is bottom up and allows investment in a concentrated portfolio of the managers' 'best ideas'. This fund aims to invest in companies that have attractive earnings potential based on the belief that stock markets reflect short-term trends and that they are slow to adjust to structural changes in companys. This process leads to a greater degree of volatility.
Importance is placed on sell discipline, that is, when a stock is believed to be overvalued or a company stops growing organically the managers sell the stock in order to minimise opportunity cost.

The value of your investments and the income from them can go down as well as up, and you can get back less than you originally invested. Past performance or any yields quoted should not be considered reliable indicators of future returns. Before investing in funds please check the specific risk factors on the key features document or refer to our risk warning notice as some funds can be high risk or complex; they may also have risks relating to the geographical area, industry sector and/or underlying assets in which they invest. Prevailing tax rates and relief are dependent on your individual circumstances and are subject to change.
