India Capital Growth (IGC) has announced that, with effect from 1 July 2019, its annual management fee will be charged at a rate of 1.25%. This is a reduction from the current rate of 1.50%. Reflecting this, the company says that its annualised ongoing charges ratio is forecast to fall to around 1.6% ,based upon Total Assets of £130m.

“I am pleased to announce this management fee reduction as part of the Board’s commitment to deliver value-for-money investment into India. This meaningful reduction in ongoing costs, marks India Capital Growth Fund as the competitive vehicle for investors wishing to benefit from exposure to the Indian mid and small cap opportunity.”
