Key features

  • The first and largest UK investment trust to focus purely on India.
  • Strong long-term performance against benchmark.
  • Managed by a dedicated team within a 40-strong global emerging markets group.
  • Strong focus on first-hand company visits and research to discover attractively-valued stocks.

Key risks

  • Investing in emerging markets may involve a higher element of risk due to political and economic instability and underdeveloped markets and systems, and may be illiquid.
  • Exchange rate changes may cause the value of underlying overseas investments to be volatile.
  • Investments in smaller companies may involve a higher degree of risk as these are usually more sensitive to price movements.
  • Investment trusts may utilise gearing which will exaggerate market movements both down and up which could mean sudden and large falls in value. For further details, please refer to the trust’s annual report and accounts.
