Fund objective

The Fund predominantly invests in a diversified range of companies which are out of favour, in difficulty or whose future prospects are not fully recognised by the market. The sole aim of the Fund is capital growth. There is no particular income yield target.

 

Policy for achieving objective

The M&G Recovery Fund focuses on troubled companies where a good management team is making concerted efforts to turn the business around. The fund manager is prepared to take a contrarian view and consider areas that are out of favour among investors. These can include restructuring stories, special situations and the seeking out of hidden value. As a result of this approach the Fund has a larger exposure to medium-sized and smaller companies than the UK market as a whole.

Previously, from 1987 to 1992, Tom worked for Phillips & Drew (PDFM) as a fund manager within their charity and small pension fund division.
