Launched
1 Feb 2019
To provide capital growth over the long term (in excess of five years), after all costs and charges have been taken. The fund seeks to directly invest at least 70% of its assets in shares of smaller-sized UK companies. These are listed companies with a market capitalisation within the lowest 10% of the listed UK equities markets. Capital invested is at risk and there is no guarantee the objective will be achieved over the time period.
