FP Octopus UK Future Generations Fund
“To invest in the people, ideas and industries that will change the world” Dominic Weller, Fund Manager
Your investment can help create change
We target long-term capital growth by investing in businesses that align with our three strategic investment themes: building a sustainable planet, empowering people, and revitalising healthcare.
We think these businesses have the potential to transform the world for the better as well as deliver the best returns for investors over the coming decades. Why?
- Tackling society’s biggest challenges means there is a huge market opportunity for those who can tackle them.
- The demand for solutions to the planet’s challenges is urgent and growing.
- People increasingly want to buy from and work for businesses that make a positive difference in the world.
10% of all fees Octopus generates from this fund will be paid to our charity, Octopus Giving, in perpetuity.
Building a sustainable planet
These businesses aim to reduce carbon emissions, protect a range of ecosystems, or create a circular economy that removes waste.
Empowering people
These businesses aim to improve access to digital learning, make financial advice available to the masses, or provide valuable cybersecurity solutions.
Revitalising healthcare
These businesses aim to help people conquer addictions or create software that will help to make essential healthcare and digital services more efficient.
Risks to bear in mind
Capital at risk
The value of an investment, and any income from it, can fall as well as rise. Investors may not get back the full amount they invest. Please read the prospectus and the Key Investor Information Document when considering one of our funds.
Smaller company share prices can be more volatile
Investments in smaller company shares are likely to fall and rise in value more than shares in larger, more established companies listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange. They may also be harder to sell.
Fee deductions
Fees will be deducted from capital which will increase the amount of income available for distribution. However, this will erode capital and may hinder capital growth.
