Hopkins Balanced Growth Fund
Hopkins PLC Cautious Managed Fund aims to preserve capital while preparing for long-term growth. The fund prioritises liquidity and capital preservation, with a view to diversifying into UKOGB government gilts and suitable listed companies as the market develops. Holdings are subject to availability, and the fund will not pursue speculative trades simply to remain invested. Returns are not guaranteed, and capital may be at risk. Copy description
