    Our Asset Allocation Team

    ABOUT THE TEAM​

    Ensuring that our multi-asset funds have appropriate asset allocation is vital and something that we pay great attention to. Our asset allocation team focuses on long-term strategic asset allocation to determine the optimal mix of asset classes for a fund’s risk profile, based on the modelled returns of those asset classes over the long term. The team also oversees the implementation of tactical asset allocation, aiming to benefit from shorter-term opportunities.

    ​The team evaluates the competence of the manager, the robustness of the firm’s controls in supporting the manager and the likelihood that they will be able to deliver on or exceed customer expectations.  ​
