charities with the aim of delivering long-term capital growth and a level of income
while employing a total return approach.

The fund will invest in a diverse range of asset classes, and will not invest directly
in companies manufacturing tobacco or tobacco products, or companies that derive
more than 10% of their revenues from the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, armaments,
gambling, high interest rate lending or pornography.

 

It will be managed by Andrew Pitt, investment director and head of charities, London
at Rathbones.

 

Pitt said:

> to their needs.”
