Yes, it is somewhat frustrating that the performance tables are set in stone at the end of a month and readers of the magazine don’t get to see them until nearly a month later.

The tables in the magazine, of course, are intended to provide a snapshot of each fund’s standing at the month-end, but for more up-to-date information, you can get access to daily updated figures via our website, www.whatinvestment.co.uk.

If you go  to the ‘Tools’ section on the home page, you will find a section headed ‘Latest Prices’. Click on whichever of the four icons below this that you want – Unit Trusts (includes OEICs), Pension Funds, Investment Trusts or Life Funds – and you will get access to a full performance database, which you can then customise according to which funds, groups or sectors you are interested in.
