The story

The company was established as the Sterling Trust in 1881. Following the appointment of Robert Fleming & Co. was as manager, it became the Fleming American Investment Trust in 1982. After Robert Fleming & Co. was acquired by Chase Manhattan in April 2000, and Chase Manhattan merged with J.P. Morgan & Co. in December 2000, it was brought under the management of J.P. Morgan & Co. It went on to be the JPMorgan Fleming American Investment Trust in 2002 and then, following JPMorgan's decision to drop the Fleming brand, adopted its current name in 2006.
