Important fund updates
We have made certain fund updates effective 2 December 2024. Please see the shareholder notice below for details.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund aims to provide capital growth over the long term. Performance target: To outperform the FTSE World Europe Ex UK Index, after the deduction of charges, over any 5 year period.
More
The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in shares (also known as equities) of companies, in any industry, in Europe (excluding UK). Companies will be incorporated, headquartered, listed on an exchange in, or deriving significant revenue from, this region. The Fund may invest in companies of any size, but will normally have a strong bias towards medium sized companies with the potential to grow into large sized companies. The Fund may also invest in other assets including cash and money market instruments. The Investment Manager may use derivatives (complex financial instruments) to reduce risk or to manage the Fund more efficiently. The Fund is actively managed with reference to the FTSE World Europe Ex UK Index, which is broadly representative of the companies in which it may invest, as this forms the basis of the Fund's performance target. The Investment Manager has discretion to choose investments for the Fund with weightings different to the index or not in the index. As an additional means of assessing the performance of the Fund, the IA Europe ex UK sector average, which is based on a peer group of broadly similar funds, may also provide a useful comparator.
Less
The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations and you may not get back the amount originally invested.
Potential investors must read the prospectus, and where relevant, the key investor information document before investing.
