Artemis SmartGARP Global Equity Fund

The manager of the Artemis SmartGARP Global Equity Fund seeks to grow capital over a five year period by investing in companies around the world.  He draws on SmartGARP^®, Artemis’ in-house software tool that screens companies’ finances to identify potential investments.

The value of the investments selected by the manager may fall as well as rise with movements in stockmarkets or owing to diverse factors specific to individual companies. This could mean investors may not get back the amount they originally invested.

• Global opportunity: the fund invests worldwide, covering a broad spread of countries and industries.
• Rigorous stock screening: SmartGARP highlights to the manager companies with attractive financial characteristics.
• Objective clarity: SmartGARP provides a fact-based framework for comparing the relative attractions of shares in different markets and industries around the world.
• Subjective insight: before investing, the manager carries out detailed research to assess whether the investment story behind a SmartGARP recommendation is valid.
• ESG integration: the managers use artificial intelligence to look at newsflow to provide real-time insights into environmental, social and governance behaviour. This pushes them towards companies with strong ESG credentials and/or those that are showing significant improvements.

Please note that this fund changed name on 8 February 2021; it was previously named Artemis Global Growth Fund.
