UK Smaller Companies FundLIONTRUST UK SMALLER COMPANIES FUND

A UK equity unit trust managed for long-term capital growth through investment in a portfolio of smaller companies.
 
 
 
 

The Liontrust UK Smaller Companies Fund is managed by Anthony Cross and Julian Fosh in accordance with their UK smaller companies investment process, The Liontrust Economic Advantage. It invests in a portfolio of stocks from the FTSE Small Cap., Fledgling and AIM Indices. Companies must demonstrate that their Intellectual Capital will sustain their competitive edge, and that directors own at least 3% of the listed equity.

Anthony and Julian’s strict risk regime:
•  A balance is maintained between industry sectors
•  Each company is given a portfolio weighting based upon risks such as customer spread and
   financial gearing.

The Funds are valued daily at 12 noon on a forward basis; purchases and sales of units are effected at the next valuation point following receipt of instructions. The prices shown below are as at the most recent valuation point and are therefore not a precise indication of what you may receive if you were to undertake a transaction now. The offer price is the price at which you would have bought units and the bid price is the price at which you would have sold them.

* Please refer to the Liontrust Umbrella Fund plc Prospectus for details of valuation points for the Dublin OEICs. The price shown is the NAV per share.

Notes:

 

The Fund Size is calculated on a bid basis.

 

The Historic Yield reflects distributions declared over the past 12 months as a percentage of the mid-market unit price.  It does not include any preliminary charge and investors may be subject to tax on their distributions.

 

R = Price for Retail units

I = Price for Institutional units

 

1A portion of the Income Fund's expenses are charged to capital.  This has the effect of increasing the distribution for the year by 1.5 percentage points and constraining the fund's capital performance to an equivalent extent.
