About Polar Capital Technology Trust

Polar Capital Technology Trust is specialist technology investment trust that seeks to maximize capital growth for its shareholders through investing in a diversified portfolio of technology companies around the world.

Polar Capital Technology Trust is managed by the Polar Capital technology team. Polar Capital was established by the senior technology fund managers previously responsible for Henderson's specialist technology funds. Polar Capital also has other specialist and geographically focused investment teams which contribute to ideas generation.

Polar Capital selects companies for their potential for generating capital growth, not on the basis of technology for its own sake. We believe in rigorous fundamental analysis and focus on: management quality, the identification of new growth markets, the globalisation of major technology trends, and exploiting international valuation anomalies and sector volatility.
