The investment direction primarily invests in companies located within the European region and employs active investment strategy to select stocks. Unlike Europe Equity Index investment direction that primarily invests in large-cap stocks, this investment direction may differentiate itself by placing an emphasis on either mid-/smaller cap, undervalued, or growth companies, believing that they may offer greater growth potential compared to their larger counterparts over the long term. Nevertheless, investment direction does not have any restrictions concerning market capitalisation, geography, or industry. 

Investors with an appetite for higher risk while seeking opportunity to outperform the broader markets may find this investment direction more suitable for their investment objectives. Investors should be comfortable with the risks of active management and stock selection. While these strategies may lead to higher returns, they also come with reduced diversification and a greater risk of deviating from overall market performance. This investment direction may not be suitable for those seeking more predictable returns aligned with broader market trends. 

The present investment object of the investment direction, allocated at 100%, is the Comgest Growth Europe Smaller Companies I Fund (ISIN: IE00BHWQNP08), chosen as one of the leading funds in its category. The fund promotes environmental or social characteristics, without having as its objective a sustainable investment.
