“No major changes. Liontrust has recently attracted significant press attention. Disappointing performance of its First Growth Fund combined with negative asset flows led to some serious concerns among investors. We usually do not engage in short-term tactical asset allocation and we maintain our suggested allocation to the Liontrust First Income Fund. Fund manager Jeremy Lang will continue to deliver good returns and with his distinctive investment style and philosophy we expect him to add value to the overall UK equity.”
