    What does it do?

    Henderson European Focus Trust plc seeks to provide long-term capital growth by investing in Continental European investments.

    Why invest?
    • Winner of the Moneywise European Investment Trust award 2010.
    • Managed by a team led by John Bennett who has over 20 years experience managing Continental European equities.
    • The portfolio is built on a bottom up, stock picking basis using sector themes rather than by reference to asset allocation models.
    What are the risks?
    • Most of the investments in this portfolio are not made in Sterling, so exchange rates could affect the value and income from your investment.
    • If a fund is a specialist country-specific or geographic regional fund, the investment carries greater risk than a more internationally diversified portfolio. Full details of risks.
