Jean Roche, Lead Manager at Schroder UK Mid Cap Fund will provide an intro to the Trust.
UK Mid-caps are positioned in a sweet spot for innovation, disruption and growth. This is why the UK Mid Cap index has beaten most other developed market indices over the long term.
The FTSE 250 is an incubator for growth in that it is home to many businesses that are riding the wave of long-term structural growth trends. Although they have proven products and services, they can have ahead of them a much longer and steeper growth trajectory than their large cap counterparts.
Factors such as M&A, dividend growth and founder involvement also lie behind the success of UK Mid Caps.
