We have created an environment in which our fund managers are encouraged to be independently minded in their investment decision-making, unconstrained by institutional processes or fears of straying from the herd. Our culture encourages our investment teams to share information and debate stock ideas in a dynamic and freethinking atmosphere.
The range of services for private client investors enables them to benefit from the skills of this team as well as those of other like-minded 'best-of-breed' fund managers. We construct private client portfolios composed of a range of asset classes, including those sometimes ignored by more traditional fund managers such as property, hedge funds and private equity.

We believe the responsibility for picking the best stocks in the market place, as opposed to the largest or best known, should be delegated to a focused group of experienced managers. |
Most UK Private clients hold a proportion of their assets in tax-efficient Personal Equity Plans (PEP's)and Individual Savings Accounts (ISA's). |
| SIPP portfolio | Bespoke OEICs | |

Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPP's) are a growing part of the private client market place, offering clients a tax-free environment in which to build up their assets in preparation for retirement and to maximise their income once they have retired. |
Families and groups of associated individuals can have their assets managed by our selected fund managers in tax-efficient authorised vehicles called open-ended investment companies (OEICs).
