1 JPMorgan European Smaller Companies Trust plc Annual General Meeting July 2017 Francesco Conte, Portfolio Manager Edward Greaves, Portfolio Manager
2 JPMorgan European Smaller Companies Trust plc Key characteristics Objective The Company aims to provide capital growth from a diversified portfolio of smaller European companies (excluding the United Kingdom). As the emphasis is on capital growth rather than income, shareholders should expect the dividend to vary from year to year. The company has the ability to use borrowing to gear the portfolio within the range of 20% net cash to 20% geared in normal market conditions Policy To invest in a diversified portfolio of companies the majority of which, at the time of purchase, fall within the market capitalisation range of the benchmark index Benchmark Euromoney Smaller European Companies (ex UK) Index (Total Return Net) Net assets GBP 724.8m Gearing Current: 3.6% cash Source: J.P. Morgan Asset Management. As at 31 May The Investment Manager (Portfolio Manager) seeks to achieve the stated targets/objectives. There can be no guarantee the objectives/targets will be met. The Benchmark is a point of reference against which the performance of the Investment Trust may be measured. The Investment Trust may bear little resemblance to its benchmark. Diversification does not guarantee investment returns and does not eliminate the risk of loss. 1

22 Specific risks JPM Europe Smaller Companies Fund The value of your investment may fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you originally invested. The value of Equity and Equity-Linked Securities may fluctuate in response to the performance of individual companies and general market conditions. The Fund invests in securities of smaller companies which may be more difficult to sell, more volatile and tend to carry greater financial risk than securities of larger companies. This Fund is aggressively managed, which may result in higher volatility of the Fund s performance and bigger differences between the performance of the Fund and its Benchmark. Movements in currency exchange rates can adversely affect the return of your investment. Source: J.P. Morgan Asset Management as of 30 June
