Active managers who invest in their own funds
Active investment management requires confidence , courage and commitment in every investment decision , something the managers of CRUX ’ s European Special Situations Fund have plenty of .
They are also committed to aligning their investment aims with that of their clients by investing meaningful amounts of their own assets in their funds .
As you can see from the table above , it ’ s an approach which is delivering strong performance and over the years they have achieved an impressive track record .
The Fund has comfortably lapped the index and most of the tracker funds that follow it nearly every year over the past five years , as shown in the table above . So if you ’ re investing in Europe put yourself on the podium with active asset management , not in the slow lane with a passive investment .
Past performance is not a guide to future returns . The value of an investment and any income from it are not guaranteed and can go down as well as up and there is the risk of loss to your investment .
