Investment objective

The Fund aims to provide capital growth (to grow the value of your investment) and income over at least 5 years. The Fund invests primarily (at least two-thirds and typically substantially more) in the shares of UK companies (those incorporated in, domiciled in, or that have significant economic exposure to, the UK), which are believed to have quality characteristics typically associated with strong brands, franchises or lasting competitive advantages such as unique know-how (e.g. valuable patents) that competitors cannot copy easily or operating more efficiently as they grow.

Important documents: Please ensure that you have read the Key Information Document/Technical Guide , SDR Consumer facing disclosure, Pre-sale Illustrations document & Doing Business with Fidelity document (incorporating the Fidelity Client Terms) and the fund information documents.
