Why invest in Europe?

Europe offers a diversity of investment opportunity – from large and established markets such as Germany, France and the UK to smaller markets such as Greece and Portugal and the new Europe countries.

Although the Euro has brought some alignment between the various economies, Europe’s markets continue to experience varied rates of growth. This provides our fund managers with extensive investment opportunities.

The home of many leading names in technology, financial services and pharmaceuticals, Europe should be considered for any investor’s portfolio.

Key European issues to consider

• Europe is undergoing a dramatic transformation with the enlargement of the European Union and the continued impact of the single currency.
• Many established European companies are restructuring and becoming more competitive, with a greater focus on delivering value for shareholders.
• Europeans are increasingly turning to stock markets to fund their retirement, which is providing increased support for share prices.
• As a European, investing in Europe carries little currency risk so it should form a key element of your portfolio.
