Schroder UK Growth Fund aims to achieve capital growth by investing in the shares of UK companies. The portfolio is biased towards high quality companies which are expected to grow their profits more than the average for the market in the long term. By "high quality" we mean companies with credible management, a sound and transparent business strategy, and a strong product or service. While the portfolio is reasonably balanced between different sectors of the market, it is managed fairly aggressively in that the fund manager concentrates on around 50 companies, allowing him to back his preferred companies more heavily.
