LONDON (Alliance News) - MedicX Fund Ltd Friday said that Octopus Capital Ltd has agreed to acquire MedicX Group, including MedicX Adviser Ltd, the fund's investment adviser, but noted that MedicX Chief Executive Mike Adams will continue to work with his existing team in the same role.
"The strong partnership approach which MedicX Fund has in place with our investment adviser has helped us to build a successful track record over the past eight years.
