Our Investment Process

The Liontrust Global Innovation team seeks to generate strong returns by investing in innovative companies. They believe that innovation is the single most important driver of stock returns
The Liontrust GF Global Technology Fund combines Leaders and Disruptors in the technology sector to provide exposure to the most innovative technology companies and the potential for high returns
Each company within the Fund must demonstrate four core attributes: innovation that creates value for customers, strong barriers to entry, good management with proven execution, and strong returns on invested capital
While the Fund aims to achieve high returns and outperform the market over the long term, it may underperform over the shorter term due to macroeconomic volatility
Past performance does not predict future returns. You may get back less than you originally invested. Reference to specific securities is not intended as a recommendation to purchase or sell any investment.

Key fund literature

Key features of the Fund

The Fund aims to achieve income with the potential for capital growth over the long-term (five years or more). The Fund aims to deliver a net target yield in excess of the net yield of the MSCI World Index each year.

There can be no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The Investment Adviser will seek to achieve the investment objective of the Fund by investing at least 80% of the Fund’s Net Asset Value in shares of companies across the world. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its Net Asset Value in other eligible asset classes. Other eligible asset classes include collective investment schemes (which may include funds managed by the Investment Adviser), cash or near cash, deposits and Money Market Instruments.

In addition the Fund may invest in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) (which are classified as collective investment schemes) and other open-ended collective investment schemes. Investment in open-ended collective investment schemes will not exceed 10% of the Fund’s Net Asset Value. The Fund may invest in closed-ended funds domiciled in the United Kingdom and/or the EU that qualify as transferable securities. Investment in closed-ended funds will be used where the closed-ended fund aligns to the objectives and policies of the Fund. Investment in closed-ended funds will further be confined to schemes which are considered by the Investment Adviser to be liquid in nature and such an investment shall constitute an investment in a transferable security in accordance with the requirements of the Central Bank. Investment in closed-ended funds is not expected to comprise a significant portion of the Fund’s Net Asset Value and will not typically exceed 10% of the Fund’s Net Asset Value.

The Fund is considered to be suitable for investors seeking income with the potential for long-term capital growth over a long term investment horizon (at least 5 years) with the level of volatility typical of an equity fund.

6

Active

The Fund is considered to be actively managed in reference to the MSCI ACWI Information Technology 10/40 Index (the "Benchmark") by virtue of the fact that it uses the benchmark(s) for performance comparison purposes. The benchmark(s) are not used to define the portfolio composition of the Fund and the Fund may be wholly invested in securities which are not constituents of the benchmark. 

The Fund is a financial product subject to Article 8 of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).

KEY RISKS

Past performance does not predict future returns. You may get back less than you originally invested.

We recommend this fund is held long term (minimum period of 5 years). We recommend that you hold this fund as part of a diversified portfolio of investments.

  • Overseas investments may carry a higher currency risk. They are valued by reference to their local currency which may move up or down when compared to the currency of the Fund.
  • The Fund, may in certain circumstances, invest in derivatives but it is not intended that their use will materially affect volatility. Derivatives are used to protect against currencies, credit and interest rate moves or for investment purposes. The use of derivatives may create leverage or gearing resulting in potentially greater volatility or fluctuations in the net asset value of the Fund. A relatively small movement in the value of a derivative's underlying investment may have a larger impact, positive or negative, on the value of a fund than if the underlying investment was held instead. 
  • Credit Counterparty Risk: outside of normal conditions, the Fund may hold higher levels of cash which may be deposited with several credit counterparties (e.g.international banks). A credit risk arises should one or more of these counterparties be unable to return the deposited cash.
  • Concentration Risk: the Fund may have a concentrated portfolio, i.e. hold a limited number of investments (35 or fewer) or have significant sector or factor exposures. If one of these investments or sectors / factors fall in value this can have a greater impact on the Fund's value than if it held a larger number of investments across a more diversified portfolio.
  • Liquidity Risk: the Fund may encounter liquidity constraints from time to time. The spread between the price you buy and sell shares will reflect the less liquid nature of the underlying holdings.
  • ESG Risk: there may be limitations to the availability, completeness or accuracy of ESG information from third-party providers, or inconsistencies in the consideration of ESG factors across different third party data providers, given the evolving nature of ESG.

The issue of units/shares in Liontrust Funds may be subject to an initial charge, which will have an impact on the realisable value of the investment, particularly in the short term. Investments should always be considered as long term.
