Fund manager insights: What distinguishes great fund managers from average ones?

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

In this first episode of the Fund Selectors podcast, host and award-winning fund researcher Lucy Walker speaks to Simon Evan-Cook, manager of the Downing Fox multi-manager range.

Simon, a vocal advocate of active fund management, discusses his investment philosophy and his belief that it is possible to beat the market by unearthing and selecting talented, experienced and diligent fund managers.

Simon goes on to explain how he identifies passionate fund managers, the traits ‘exceptional’ fund managers demonstrate, his approach to portfolio construction, and the role of diversification within his portfolios.

Listen to the podcast below:
