How to make a continental quilt
29 Sep 2005
European smaller companies are an attractive asset class to own because of the much higher growth rates achieved by some smaller companies compared with their bigger rivals. This is my biased view as a fund manager in this asset class but a view which I am happy to back with my own savings. The marketing messages you keep hearing about undiscovered smaller companies offering higher rewards to stockpickers are true.

Material facts
29 Sep 2005
Those villified for selling the plans may feel aggrieved. They might suggest that morally the FSA shares some of the blame and argue that to assess the marketing material requires an understanding of how the plans worked. However this is probably academic. The FSA did not have the power to strike out this sort of plan at the time.

New dawn for Japan funds
29 Sep 2005
Prime minister Koisumi's landslide victory in the Japanese general election means there should be a continuing period of stability. Corporate restructuring, deregulation and the growing strength of the underlying economy, along with a pick-up in domestic demand, are indications of positive returns on Japanese shares. Furthermore, the Japanese stockmarket looks cheaper than most other markets and its prospects are still not fully factored into stockmarket valuations.

The client has to believe we are treating them fairly and operating in their best interests.
