Portfolio Manager

Alex Wright, Jonathan Winton

The Fidelity Funds - UK Special Situations Fund A-GBP page has been refreshed from Fidelity Funds’ April 2026 Hong Kong Extract Prospectus. The PDF fund description is for UK Special Situations Fund.

Investment Objective

The fund aims to achieve capital growth over the long term.

Investment Policy

The fund invests at least 70% of its assets, in equities of companies that are listed, headquartered, or do most of their business in the UK. The fund seeks to invest in special situations equities (equities that are undervalued and whose recovery potential is not recogni s ed by the market). The fund will have a mixture of investments in larger, medium, and smaller sized companies. The fund may also invest in money market instruments on an ancillary basis.

Investment Process

In actively managing the fund, the Investment Manager considers growth and valuation metrics, company financials, return on capital, cash flows and other financial measures, as well as company management, industry, economic conditions, and other factors. The Investment Manager will focus on companies it believes to be undervalued and whose recovery potential (i.e. potential recovery of share prices reflecting improving business fundamentals) is not recognised by the market (i.e. special situations). The I n vestment M anager takes into account Sustainability Risks in its investment process. For more information, see Sustainable Investing and ESG Integration.

Derivatives and Techniques

The fund may use derivatives for hedging, efficient portfolio management and investment purposes. In addition to core derivatives (see How the Funds Use Instruments and Techniques), the fund intends to use TRS. TRS (including CFD) usage Expected 40%; maximum 100%. Securities lending Expected 15%; maximum 30%. Repos/reverse repos Expected 0%; maximum 30%.
