Objective
The fund invests in smaller companies worldwide in order to secure a high total return. The fund pursues this investment objective by investing in a large number of stocks in various industry sectors and geographic locations. There are no specific sector or geographical exposure limits. Whilst the fund has a global orientation, its objective is to find attractively valued investment opportunities wherever they may be and it is therefore not constrained to mandatory weightings per geographic region.

All information should be used for indicative purposes only. You should independently
check data before making any investment decision. HL cannot guarantee that the data is

Prices provided by NBTrader. Charts provided by Factset.
Dividend data provided by Digital Look. Recent trade data provided by MoneyAM. Trust basics,
holding data, key dates, objective and NAV provided by Morningstar.
The London Stock Exchange does not disclose whether a trade is a buy or a sell so this data is estimated based on the trade price received and the LSE-quoted mid-price at the point the trade is placed. It should only be considered an indication and not a recommendation.
Trades priced above the mid-price at the time the trade is placed are labelled as a buy; those priced below the mid-price are sells; and those priced close to the mid-price or declared late are labelled 'N/A'.
