We have reinstated the Morningstar Analyst Rating™ of Neutral to Oyster European Opportunities. The fund was previously Under Review following the departure of long-standing manager Eric Bendahan in September 2014. The new portfolio manager, Michael Clements, has previously built a promising four-year track record at the helm of Franklin European Growth but several challenges await him here. He will run a less concentrated portfolio with much fewer small and mid-caps than he used to. Also, he will have to overcome higher fees including a performance fee that is very unfavourably structured with respect to investors. We are therefore cautious.
