WORLDWIDE LONG TERM GLOBAL GROWTH FUND

Investment manager Mark Urquhart would love to see companies currently in the portfolio still having their place in it in 2050. For him, it is not enough for businesses to endure, they must adapt and, crucially, be brave enough to disrupt themselves, if they are to manifest growth for many years to come.

As our understanding of the concept of global continues to evolve, investment manager John MacDougall suggests that where a company happens to be based will not prevent it from building a high growth business in the future. As such, we must be prepared to see high-growth companies emerging from new locations across the globe. John explains how the Long Term Global Growth team are adapting their research to accommodate this.

Peter Singlehurst explains why it is becoming increasingly important to invest in exciting companies at an earlier stage and offers an insight into the characteristics he looks for in unlisted businesses.
