The Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is an independent entity, separate from the investment manager (who is, in this case, Polar Capital). The Directors are responsible for the governance and operation of the trust, which includes selecting the investment manager. Independently elected, they perform a number of tasks such as holding the investment manager to account on performance, ensuring investors are treated fairly, and how the trust’s revenues are deployed on, for example, marketing and dividends.
