L&G Global Small Cap

Options
Hey guys, 
I was trying to find the L&G Global Small Cap fund on an investing platform. I searched all variations I could think of, including the isin of (IE00BG0VVG79)

iweb, II and Fidelity don't seem to carry it. As some big name platforms that seems a bit odd no?! 

Am I doing something really pebkac here?!

    I can't find it any more either. As an Irish ICAV, since Brexit it does not have the same level of consumer protections for UK investors so platforms may be reluctant to sell it.

    The ICAV is a recognised scheme in the UK for the purposes of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “Act”) by virtue of section 264 of that Act. It is registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) under the number 785306. UK investors are advised that the rules made by the FCA under the Act do not in general apply to the ICAV in relation to its investment business. In particular, the rules made under the Act for the protection of private customers (for example, those conferring rights to cancel or withdraw from certain investment agreements) do not apply, and the Financial Services Compensation Scheme will not be available, in connection with an investment in the ICAV. In addition, the protections available under the Financial Ombudsman Service will not be available in connection with an investment in the ICAV

    Vanguard's Global small cap tracks the same index although is a bit more expensive at 0.29%

    Fascinating Poppy, I never thought that could be the issue! Thanks, I was going crazy last night trying different variations on multiple platforms!
