Price (Acc)
These are the shares in the fund that don’t pay out an income to clients. Any dividends – the money a company can pay out to its investors – are reinvested into companies in the fund. Despite no income, the shares should be worth more over time. Good incentive, eh?

Yield
How much the fund is currently paying out in income to investors. It’s NOT to be confused with the overall growth of a fund – a very different thing indeed. It’s also NOT a guarantee of future pay-outs, just a snapshot. This is more what it’s not than what it is…
This international fund invests almost entirely in equities with typically around 50% UK exposure. Though a stockpicking fund, the process also incorporates investment themes from Newton's strategy group such as globalisation. Though Newton have a strong global team and a high quality process we have higher conviction in other international equity funds.

Investment process
The fund’s objective is to achieve capital and income growth from a portfolio of widely diversified international securities. All stocks in the portfolio are derived from the Research Recommended List, a portfolio selected by Newton's global analysts. Based in London, the analysts are organised by sector with each comparing the stocks in their sector on a global basis. Newton's team of global fund managers then adapt the Research Recommended List into an idealised model portfolio which represents their best ideas. This list is further adapted by the fund manager to reflect the individual fund's objectives. There are no geographic constraints, but around 50% of the fund is typically invested in the UK. The reference benchmark is the WM Private Clients Growth, which consists predominantly of equities but includes some bonds. The process also incorporates long term themes,such as globalisation, identified by Newton's strategy group.

About the MRI
Our unique indicator: the Bestinvest Manager Record Index (MRI) measures the likelihood that the fund manager is adding value through their decisions. It is based on their performance record over the course of their career, adjusted for the amount of risk taken. MRI is an important contributor to our fund rating system but it is also vital to take account of qualitative factors. It is also very important to select funds to form a cohesive portfolio with an appropriate overall risk level.
