Focus and Objective
|
This sterling-denominated portfolio invests exclusively in units of the OM Gerrard UK Smaller Companies Fund. It aims to offer above average growth over the longer term. The fund invests in a selection of smaller companies listed in the United Kingdom. These are companies with a market capitalisation of less than £250 million (at time of investing).
This fund is for investors wanting to add a more specialised United Kingdom investment to their core portfolio. They must be prepared for short term fluctuations and thus be able to invest for at least 3 - 5 years.
