HL research - our view on this fund
Signs of recovery in the three largest global economies - the US, China and Japan - healthy corporate balance sheets and increased returns to shareholders through share buybacks and dividends, lead Nigel Thomas to be bullish on the prospects for equities. Many of the fund's holdings generate a significant proportion of their earnings overseas so look well placed to benefit from global economic recovery. We continue to believe this fund represents a good choice for core UK exposure.
