    This Morningstar X-ray tool will show you the breakdown of large, medium and small caps:

  • I've had the VG Global Small Cap for a few years or so and it's done well for me (caveat that past performance isn't an indicator of future performance, blah, blah).

    I also hold the VLS 60 and the Woodford Equity Income fund, so a mix of passive and managed.
  • Thanks @Audaxer, looks like that tool will be very useful for me.
    Thanks @stardust09, yes that is a fund I'm considering adding to my current VLS 100/20 mix (mainly 100 atm) if I go that way.

    Are you sure Woodford is managed as it seems pretty chaotic and knee jerk desperate to me? It's a really good example of the Jack Bogle 'reversion to the mean' where even star fund managers eventually fail if they are in the game long enough.
