About this service
Kepler Trust Intelligence for private investors is not just another news and research website. Our aim is to create a library of high quality investment strategy research, fund analysis and useful guides for private investors, all written in-house by experienced analysts on the investment companies team at Kepler Partners.
We are focused entirely on investment trusts, however we believe that it helps to understand them better if they are placed on a level playing field with OEICs, so you will see comparisons between the two in these pages often.
Our content falls into three categories;
Investment strategy articles are designed to highlight opportunities and developments which are of interest to investment trust investors, positive or negative.
Fund research focuses on individual trusts, examining them in detail to create a snapshot picture which you can use to decide whether or not you want to invest in them.
Educational output is split into simple guides, designed to help beginners understand how investment trusts work, and more complex guides to sectors, regions and strategies which may be of interest to investors.
We do not produce massive amounts of research. Our focus is on quality, not quantity, so we are unlikely to publish more than four or five articles in a given week. For this reason we recommend that you join our mailing list, and we'll send you an email once a week alerting you to what's new on the site. We won't sell your details, and we won't spam you with useless updates.
How are we funded?
Kepler Trust Intelligence is funded entirely by the providers of investment trusts, and is made available freely to any person (professional or private individual) who wants to access it. We clearly disclose all of our relationships, but our research is either paid for directly by specific trusts and their boards, or more generally by the larger asset management groups who pay to have adverts and advertorial. As a result, all of our research should be considered "non-independent" and readers should consider it as marketing.
All of our content is freely available to anyone. We run two versions of the site - one for professionals and one for private investors. The professional site requires readers to volunteer the name of the company they work for and the city / region - so that from a compliance perspective we can be satisfied that all readers really are a professional.
We provide information, not advice
While we hope that you find the research we publish useful, and we believe it will help you to make a more informed decision, but we must of course stress that none of the research published here constitutes a recommendation, or advice, and you should not think that - just because we've published a report on a trust - we believe that trust is a 'buy'. Please read our terms and conditions.
If you want to manage your own investments we hope that this website is a useful source of information which helps you to do that, however if you are in any doubt, you should speak to a financial adviser.
