Woodford Investment Management

Woodford Investment Management operates as a dedicated asset manager, managing investment funds for clients. The company employs a distinct, conviction-led strategy, focusing on long-term holdings within concentrated portfolios. This approach targets under-researched or early-stage businesses alongside established firms, aiming for sustained capital growth and income through fundamental analysis.

The firm was established in 2014 by Neil Woodford, a prominent fund manager with a notable career at Invesco Perpetual. Woodford’s founding insight stemmed from a desire to implement his high-conviction investment philosophy independently. His prior success managing significant equity income portfolios provided the foundational expertise for launching this venture.

Woodford Investment Management serves individual and institutional investors seeking actively managed equity exposure. The company’s vision is to deliver superior, long-term returns by identifying and supporting innovative companies and undervalued assets. It strives to align investor interests with its investment horizon, promoting the growth and stability of their capital.
