Non-Independent Research Disclosure
The information on this website is not intended to be advice or a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any investment mentioned. No view is given as to the present or future value or price of any investment, and investors should form their own view in relation to any proposed investment.
Any information which could be construed as “investment research” has not been prepared in accordance with legal requirements designed to promote the independence of investment research and as such is considered to be a marketing communication.
The research material provided on our website is not an offer to buy or sell any of the stocks mentioned. Hargreaves Lansdown accepts no responsibility for any use made of these comments and for any consequences that may result. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the information provided and consideration has not been given to the personal circumstances of any investor. Therefore any person acting on it does so entirely at their own risk and must assess the suitability of any investment for their own personal circumstances and individual investment objectives. It is not a personal recommendation.
Although we are not specifically constrained from dealing ahead of any research material we do not seek to take advantage of it before it is provided to our clients. We aim to establish and maintain and operate effective organisational and administrative arrangements with a view to taking all reasonable steps to prevent conflicts of interest from constituting or giving rise to a material risk of damage to the interests of our clients (including restrictions on dealing for writers of equity commentary).
Hargreaves Lansdown Fund Managers Ltd (HLFM) manages funds that may hold investments which are the subject of commentary prepared and published by other parts of the Hargreaves Lansdown group. Accordingly, appropriate organisational and administrative controls (including physical and information barriers, known as “Chinese Walls”) are in place between different parts of our business, including our marketing and fund management functions, in order to manage these potential conflicts of interest. For more information please see our Conflicts of Interest policy. HLFM currently manages three funds which hold individual equity securities. Details of the significant shareholdings held by these funds can be found here for the HL Select UK Growth Shares fund, here for the HL Select UK Income Shares fund and here for the HL Select Global Growth Shares fund. Hargreaves Lansdown (Nominees) Limited holds individual securities as nominee on behalf of underlying clients of Hargreaves Lansdown, and does not exercise control over or hold the beneficial ownership of these securities.
We do not intend to provide recommendations to buy, sell or hold particular investments, nor do we provide price targets. Our opinions on particular investments (and the facts underlying them) are valid as at the date of publication, but can change at any time, and we may not update our views on any particular investment on a regular basis. Accordingly such opinions and facts may become outdated or obsolete after the date of publication.
