If you’re on the lookout for investment opportunities in European markets, the JPMorgan European Discovery Trust (LON:JEDT) offers a compelling option. This FTSE 250 trust is dedicated to capital growth by focusing on smaller companies across continental Europe. With a robust investment strategy centred around value, quality, and momentum, JEDT aims to uncover hidden gems in the European market.
A Fresh Start with Proven Expertise
In 2024, the management team of JEDT saw a significant change, with the reins being handed over to Jon Ingram, along with portfolio managers Jack Featherby and Jules Bloch. Despite this transition, the trust remains committed to its core investment philosophy, which has been fine-tuned under the new team to better adapt to market conditions. According to Research Analyst Alan Ray at Kepler Trust Intelligence, “the team managing JEDT will not be reinventing a well-established process but do see an opportunity to refine the way they work and use all the tools available to them.” This reflects the team’s dedication to leveraging JPMorgan’s extensive resources, including data scientists and ESG specialists, to make informed investment decisions.
