Fund information

Citywire

Citywire has pioneered the concept of highlighting the performance of the best fund managers rather than the best funds. Why? Because it believes it is the special talent of great fund managers that drives terrific investment performance. Its Fund Manager Ratings and Rankings - all numerically based with no subjective elements - show who is on top.

Morningstar

Morningstar, Inc. is a leading provider of independent investment research. Its mission is to create great products that help investors reach their financial goals. It offers an extensive line of internet, software, and print-based products for individual investors, financial advisers, and institutional clients around the world.

Trustnet

Trustnet’s service is aimed at private investors and Independent Financial Advisers and covers UK collective investment funds. All information is intended to be entirely factual and unbiased.

It offers completely free access to its website as the fund management companies whose products are covered pay a subscription fee. A reduced level of information is available for funds not paying a subscription.

Price and performance data is provided daily for all funds, where available. Fund profile pages are filled with information collected and collated directly from fund management companies by TrustNet's own Data Team. News feeds are supplied by Incisive Media.

Professional and regulatory organisations

The Investment Management Association (IMA)

The Investment Management Association (IMA) is the trade body for the UK's asset management industry. The money its members manage is in a wide variety of investment vehicles including authorised investment funds, pension funds and stocks and shares ISAs. Its role is to represent the industry and promote high standards.

You can find lots of useful information, including market statistics, fund prices and investment guides.

Financial Services Authority (FSA)

CommShare is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA).

The FSA is an independent non-governmental body, given statutory powers by the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. It is a company limited by guarantee and financed by the financial services industry. The Treasury appoints the FSA Board.

The FSA is accountable to Treasury Ministers, and through them to Parliament. It is operationally independent of Government and is funded entirely by the firms it regulates. The FSA is an open and transparent organisation and provides full information for firms, consumers and others about its objectives, plans, policies and rules, including through its website.

CommShare doesn't give investment advice. If you're unsure about suitability, you should seek professional advice. Past performance of an investment is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments or income from them can go down as well as up. You might not get back the amount you invest. Current tax levels and reliefs will depend on your individual circumstances.
