Investment Policy

A Sub-Fund of Comgest Growth plc.
The objective of the Sub-Fund ("the Fund") is to increase the value of the Fund (capital appreciation) over the long term. The Fund intends to achieve this objective through investment in a portfolio of high-quality, long-term growth companies. The Fund will invest at least two-thirds of its assets in securities issued by companies quoted or traded on regulated markets and that have their headquarters in, or principally carry out their activities in Emerging Markets or in securities issued by governments of Emerging Market countries. Emerging Markets are predominantly located in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern and Southern Europe.
The Fund is actively managed. The index is provided for comparative purposes only.
The Fund is aimed at investors with a long-term investment horizon (typically 5 years or more).

Main Risks

This fund has the following core inherent risks (non-exhaustive list):

• Investing involves risk including possible loss of principal,

• The value of all investments and the income derived therefrom can decrease as well as increase,

• There is no assurance that the investment objective of the fund will be achieved,

• When a Share Class is denominated in a currency that is different from yours, changes in exchange rates can negatively impact both the value of your investment and the level of income received.

• Where the income of the share class is not sufficient to pay the fixed dividend, the capital of the share class will be used to pay the balance outstanding. This may lead to capital erosion and a reduction in future returns.

A more detailed description of the risk factors that apply to the fund is set out in the Prospectus.

PERFORMANCE & HOLDINGS As of 31-Mar-2025

CUMULATIVE PAST PERFORMANCE

Cumulative returns shown are monthly returns calculated on the last business day of each month.

Index: MSCI Emerging Markets - Net Return. The index is used for comparative purposes only and the fund does not seek to replicate the index.
Please note that performance is rebased to 100.
For additional information on the index and the fund’s inception date, please refer to the monthly report.

Calendar Past Performance

This chart shows the fund’s performance as the percentage loss or gain per year over the last 10 years compared to the index.

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Markets could develop very differently in the future. It can help you to assess how the fund has been managed in the past and compare it to the index. For the avoidance of doubt, the fund is actively managed. The index performance is provided for comparative and information purposes only.

 

Performance is shown after the deduction of ongoing charges. Any applicable entry and exit charges are excluded from the calculation. This share class came into existence in 2019. Past performance has been calculated in EUR. As this is a new share class, there is not enough historical data to provide investors with any useful indication of past performance.

Past performance is not a reliable guide to future performance.

Performance figures are calculated net of investment management fees, administrative fees and all other fees with the exception of sales charges. If taken into account, sales charges would have a negative impact on performance.

Performance figures for distributing (DIS) classes are based on the assumption that dividends are reinvested on date of payment.
