Money Observer Fund Awards 2015-2017

2017 Award - "The Buffettology fund, which aims to replicate the investment style of legendary value investor Warren Buffett, has made it a hat-trick as it takes the title of Best Smaller UK Growth fund in our awards for the third year running.

The fund, which launched in 2011, has seen its assets rocket to £144 million from just £42 million a year ago – our awards criteria for smaller funds is that they should not be larger than £150 million in assets, so if its success continues, this could be the last year it is eligible for this category."
