JO HAMBRO CM CONTINENTAL EUROPEAN B GBP

The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve long term capital growth. The investment policy is to invest the Fund’s assets into equity securities of companies domiciled or exercising the predominant part of their economic activities in Europe, excluding the UK. At no time will less than two-thirds of the Fund’s total assets be invested in such securities and the Fund will normally aim to have at least 85% of its assets in this category. The Fund may invest up to 15% of total assets into equity securities of companies domiciled outside Europe. Investment is made primarily into equity securities which are readily marketable, but investments will also be made into equity securities of smaller companies which are lightly traded or, to the extent permitted by the investment and borrowing restrictions (please see below), into equity securities of smaller companies which are unquoted.
