Marlborough UK Multi-cap Growth fund captures 2015's investment sweet spots

M&G, Threadneedle, F&C and Freehold have made the cut in independent ratings and research company, FE’s first ever property list to sit within its FE Invest Approved List (formerly the Select 100 list).

Active Share has been causing quite a stir in the industry over the past year and while some managers have quite readily employed it as a marketing tool on their factsheets, the increasingly wide use of Active Share as a marker for a manager’s ‘activeness’ has been contentious. As the measure’s popularity continues to grow, FE Research looks at just how useful it is.

Although the term centralised investment proposition (CIP) is now common parlance in this industry, the ever growing range of investment approaches still leave adviser firms unsure on how to proceed.

Franklin Mid Cap, Marlborough UK Multi-Cap Growth and AXA Framlington UK Select Opportunities top the list of funds consistently rewarding long term investors, according to recent research from FE Trustnet.

The latest research from FE Trustnet highlights that UK, European, Japanese and US smaller company funds have all produced better returns over the past 15 and 20 years than their all-cap counterparts.

FE has added another integration partner allowing more UK based financial advisers to streamline their business processes by integrating FE Analytics with customer relationship management and back-office system CURO, from software and service company Time4Advice.

We are delighted to announce that the FE Trustnet editorial team have come away victorious from this year’s Investment Association Awards.
