Personal Finance Show: Hedge funds and contrarian investing

The team discuss hedge fund investment trusts and the merits of contrarian investing.
May 17, 2019

In this week's Personal Finance Show, the team are joined by Huw Evans, chairman of the BH Macro investment trust (BHMG), to discuss how hedge funds can fit into private investor portfolios, what's changing in the notoriously expensive sector, and what kind of performance investors can expect when markets get volatile.

Personal finance writer Zayani Bhatt takes us through the theory and merits of contrarian investing and discusses a couple of her favourite funds that could merit investor attention. 

And Huw discusses the latest changes to the Association of Investment Companies (AIC) sector rules and definitions, and what this means for investors who use sector averages as benchmarks when finding funds.
