Fidelity European Acc

The fund aims to increase the value of your investment over a period of 5 years or more and pay you a growing income. The fund will invest at least 80% in continental European companies. The companies will be either listed, incorporated, domiciled, or have significant business activities in the region. The remainder will be invested in companies outside of the region detailed above and in other investment types such as cash and derivatives. Derivatives are investments whose value is linked to another investment, or to the performance of a stock exchange or to some other variable factor, such as interest rates and used to reduce risk or transaction costs and/or to generate extra income or further increase the value of your investment. The fund is actively managed. The Investment Manager identifies suitable opportunities for the fund utilising in-house research and investment capabilities. The Investment Manager will, when selecting investments for the fund and for the purposes of monitoring risk, consider the MSCI Europe ex UK Index. The Investment Manager has a wide degree of freedom relative to the index and may take larger, or smaller, positions in companies, and/or may invest outside the index, to take advantage of investment opportunities. This means the fund’s investments and therefore performance may vary significantly from the index. Income earned by the fund is paid into the fund and reflected by an increase in the value of each share. Shares can usually be bought and sold each business day of the fund.
