Ignis International Cartesian UK Equity 130/30 Fund – name change

By Meera Patel | Mon 07 December 2009

Ignis International Cartesian is changing the name of their UK Equity 130/30 Fund to the Ignis International Cartesian Enhanced Alpha Fund. This change is due to take place on 14th December 2009.

The group believes the new name will better reflect the fund’s objective which aims to deliver enhanced long term returns. There will be no change to the fund’s investment strategy.

As there are no other changes, we do not believe investors need to take any action and the fund remains on the Wealth 150 list of our favourite funds in each sector.
