During 2013 the UK Equity team has undergone some significant changes. We have been through a period of refinement, streamlining our product offering and changing portfolio management where necessary LUKE CHAPPELL to ensure we have the correct team and products for our clients. Co-Manager of the We have continued to invest in our research platform, added resources UK Equity team in the form of new portfolio managers and analysts, improved our use of technology and aligned our research approach to best serve our more focused product range. We have used this period of refreshment as an opportunity to improve our team’s performance, simplifying the team structure and adding greater resource around the areas which we believe will be the future drivers of growth. We believe that the team and our offering are now in a much stronger position and we look forward to the year ahead. JAMES MACPHERSON ” Co-Manager of the UK Equity team RICHARD PLACKETT & ROLAND ARNOLD “2013 was a year of low to moderate growth, with signs of recovery throughout the developed world being offset at the margin by a decline in growth assumptions for the developing world. Despite the emerging markets reducing growth rates we still believe in the long-term investment case and expect the developing world to grow at faster absolute rates than the developed world.
