Funds leave Framlington
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.FRAMLINGTON GROUP, the investment manager, is to lose more than pounds 100m, or 5 per cent, of its funds under management.
General Portfolio, British subsidiary of the French insurer GAN, is placing the money, which is invested in UK equities, under the management of GAN Fund Managers, its in-house manager.
GAN plans to move most of the rest of the pounds 300m which Framlington manages for it at a later date. All that will remain is the UK smaller companies portfolio.
A spokesman for General Portfolio stressed that the move was because it was seeking to build up its own fund management business. The company was perfectly satisfied with Framlington's investment performance.
