Over the pond

From the beginning of April, Brown Advisory (Brown) is set to take over the management of Jupiter US Smaller Companies (JUS), following the retirement of the trust's long-standing manager, Robert Siddles. Back in December, when JUS's board announced its intention to appoint Brown, it said that the long and impressive track record of the new manager's US small-cap growth strategy, with annualised returns of 14.5% over 10 years, stood out in a highly competitive field. It also said that it believed that the appointment of Brown should lead to strong performance, a narrower discount and ultimately the ability to grow the company over time. With this major change now approaching, this note takes an in-depth look at JUS and explores the key changes that investors should expect to see. One key difference is that the portfolio will be managed from the US, rather than remotely from the UK.
