We have awarded the Fidelity China Special Situations Investment Trust (FCSS) a Morningstar Analyst Rating™ of Neutral. Previously the fund’s rating was Under Review following the departure of former fund manager Anthony Bolton. We think the transition from Bolton to Dale Nicholls has been smooth. Nicholls is an experienced investor who has built an impressive track record at Fidelity Pacific; however, Fidelity Pacific is a regional fund rather than a country-specific fund, and Nicholls has yet to prove his process is replicable here. This is his first time in charge of a closed-end fund and we are also cognisant of an increased turnover in the Chinese team. Thus, we believe a Neutral rating is appropriate at present.
