Who’s in the Doghouse?

It’s shocking how much hard-earned money is left to the dogs in consistently underperforming funds. Our landmark publication Spot the Dog exposes the howlers of funds across different sectors and provides pedigree pick alternatives to help your investments retrieve golden returns.

We have been raising awareness of dismal fund performance for more than 20 years and the term ‘dog fund’ has now entered the lexicon of the UK financial services industry. The report doesn’t win us any popularity awards with fund management companies, who yelp out excuses when their funds appear. However, we believe it puts pressure on them to address problems.
