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…

Benchmarked against the MSCI World index, the fund focuses on large and mid sized companies and will not allocate capital to emerging markets.

Investment process
This is a portfolio of predominantly large-cap stocks offering core exposure to the global equities sector. The fund aims to achieve long-term capital growth through a diversified portfolio of global companies and will typically hold around 500 securities. The investment strategy is based around a quantitative model which employs a blend of value, growth, momentum and quality. Factor exposures will vary over time depending on the prevailing market environment. Stock selection is driven by five factors including dynamic valuation, sustainable growth, analyst sentiment, company management and market dynamics. The investment process was enhanced post 2008 allowing the strategy to become more dynamic, such that prevailing market conditions / regime changes and outlook could be incorporated. The fund will typically not invest in emerging markets, REITs and IPOs. The fund is constrained at the sector level (+/-5%), whilst individual stock holdings may not exceed 0.5% on a relative basis. The fund is run on a team basis by Ian Heslop, Amadeo Alentorn and Mike Servent who have worked together since 2005.

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.
