In the midst of a turbulent period for markets across the globe, the next update in our fortnightly series focuses on the sectors and companies where we see the most value - and reasons for long-term investors to be optimistic.

How smaller companies can deliver value in challenging markets

The recent sell-off in equity markets has been severe, triggering the most rapid bear market since the crashes witnessed in 1929, 1987 and 2008.

Ken and Brendan, Fund Managers for the LF Gresham House UK Micro Cap Fund and LF Gresham House UK Multi Cap Income Fund, will discuss how they are navigating the extraordinary market conditions caused by the unfolding COVID-19 situation.

Big questions about the fate of the economy loom, especially for the some of the UK’s smaller companies. 

As the backbone of our economy, great enthusiasm remains for the small cap sector - but can this optimism defy the unprecedented challenges that businesses are finding in the current environment?
