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.
