UK equities

The UK is home to some tremendously exciting businesses. Many are not household names but are world-leading in their fields and competitively positioned.

Why invest in UK growth equities?

The UK equity market is unusual in that a small number of very large companies dominate the FTSE All-Share index. By contrast, we analyse a wider spectrum of UK-listed firms to identify high-quality growth businesses, many of which fly below the radar. This approach lets us actively allocate your capital to a select group of exceptional British companies that can grow over many years. 

How do we invest in UK growth equities?

We aim to find well-managed, high-quality growth companies that enjoy sustainable competitive advantages. 

We seek businesses with the potential to achieve superior earnings growth over time. Then we hold onto them long enough for their strengths to emerge and be reflected in their share prices, all with the aim of creating strong returns for you.
