Fund description
The Fund aims to maximise the return on your investment through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets. The Fund invests at least 70% of its total assets in the equity securities (e.g. shares) of companies globally whose predominant economic activity comprises the research, development, production and/or distribution of new and emerging technology. The Fund will focus on next generation technology themes including artificial intelligence, computing, automation, robotics, technological analytics, e-commerce, payment systems, communications technology and generative design. In normal market conditions the Fund will invest in equity securities of companies with large, medium and small market capitalisation (market capitalisation is the share price of the company multiplied by the number of shares issued). Although it is likely that most of the Fund’s investments will be in companies located in developed markets globally, the Fund may also invest in emerging markets.
