Investment summary
Standard Life UK Smaller Companies Trust (SLS) is managed by Harry Nimmo, who aims to generate long-term capital growth from a portfolio of smaller-cap UK equities. The trust has a strong performance track record; it has meaningfully outpaced its benchmark over one, three, five and 10 years. SLS has also outperformed the majority of its peers over these periods, ranking second out of 10 funds over one and three years, fifth over five years and first over 10 years. The trust has recently changed its benchmark to include AIM stocks, reflecting SLS’s increasing exposure to this area of the UK stock market, as the board and manager consider the quality of these companies has improved in recent years.
