Overview

Fund Objective: The Fund aims to provide medium to long term capital growth. The Fund is actively managed. It is not constrained by its comparator benchmark, the FTSE All World Developed Europe ex UK TR Index, and has significant freedom to invest in a portfolio that is materially different to the benchmark?s own composition. The Fund aims to achieve its objective by investing primarily in shares of European companies (which, in the context of the Fund?s primary investment excludes the UK). The Fund may be invested in any industry sector and in any continental European country. The Fund generally invests in large companies and on the main European markets but may also invest in smaller or medium sized companies and on smaller markets.

ESG

What is ESG?

ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance and is an approach for evaluating to what extent a company works towards social goals. For investors this can be used in order to understand how their funds and the assets they are made up of work towards these goals and use that information to help make sustainable investment choices.
