Alberta, home of the Canadian Rockies, is a dream destination for adventure lovers. It’s breathtaking landscapes provide a four-season playground, whether you are a hard core adventurer looking for your next adrenalin fix or someone looking for a more sedate pace. Hike or trail ride amongst bear, moose, coyote, and elk. Clock that Rockies altitude with mountain-biking, heli-hiking, or even heli-yoga. Or camp in a tepee, hunt dinosaur fossils or view the Northern Lights. Discover your own Alberta adventure at www.travelalberta.com

Independent and owner-managed, Artemis opened for business in 1997. Its aim was outstanding investment performance and client service. All Artemis’ fund managers still share these two precepts — and the same flair and enthusiasm for fund management.

The company has grown to the extent that it now manages an asset base of some £10.6bn*. This is spread across a range of 14 unit trusts, an investment trust, hedge fund products, a venture capital trust, a SICAV and both pooled and segregated institutional portfolios.

The Artemis philosophy requires our fund managers to invest in Artemis funds. This means that our fund managers' interests are directly aligned with our investors.
