Three areas I focus on to find mid- and small-cap winners

In our latest Insider Interview, Kyle Caldwell puts the questions to Georgina Brittain, fund manager of JPMorgan Mid Cap Investment Trust and JPMorgan UK Smaller Companies Investment Trust. Brittain, who has been investing in this area of the UK market for over 20 years, explains the three areas she focuses on to find the winners of the future. Brittain also gives an overview of the similarities and differences between the two investment trusts she manages, names a stock that is one of the highest-conviction holdings in both portfolios, and explains the fact that the smaller company part of the market is under-researched is an advantage for investors who like to deep dive into companies.
