This week Ben Gutteridge, Head of Fund Research, discusses the UK economy and stock market with Invesco Perpetual's Mark Barnett. Barnett currently manages a range of UK equity products that total approx £24bn. Barnett is also widely known for inheriting Woodford's mandates following his departure in 2014. The focus of the conversation is on the Tobacco, Pharmaceutical and Banking sectors, but time is made to analyse the threat of a potential Brexit.

 

The Invesco Perpetual High Income Fund may use derivatives (complex instruments) in an attempt to reduce the overall risk of its investments, reduce the costs of investing and/or generate additional capital or income, although this may not be achieved. The use of such complex instruments may result in greater fluctuations of the value of the fund. The Manager, however, will ensure that the use of derivatives within the fund does not materially alter the overall risk profile of the fund. Please ensure you have been provided with the most recent share class specific Key Investor Information Document(s) before making any decision to invest.
