About Us
We are a discretionary investment management business that specialises in managing investment trust focused portfolios that are complemented by a carefully selected range of exchange-traded funds.
What sets us apart is our specialism in investment trust focused portfolios. This is almost unique in the outsourced discretionary fund management (DFM) marketplace. To our knowledge, we are the only DFM in the country with a core investment proposition built around investment trusts.
While investment trusts have delivered excellent long-term returns for their shareholders for over 150 years, they are still often referred to as “The City’s best-kept secret”
Given that investment trusts tend to outperform both unit trusts and the markets if properly harnessed, they can make a powerful contribution to helping investors attain their financial goals
The link below illustrates their potential
Research has consistently found that the average investment trust has outperformed open-ended funds, including unit trusts, over the long term
We believe there is a generational opportunity to invest in an investment trust focused solution
Genuinely Differentiated
Our range of portfolios offers a core or satellite solution for your clients, depending on their investment objectives and needs
Our team’s philosophy is that investment is best kept simple to succeed
Complexity adds cost, risks confusion, and usually hinders investment performance. This approach is complemented by a thorough research process when constructing client portfolios.
