Building our portfolios


STRATEGIC ASSET ALLOCATION:
DESIGN AN INVESTMENT STRUCTURE FOR THE LONG-TERM

  • Asset allocation optimised for higher risk-adjusted returns.
  • Review of global asset universe to provide diversification.

TACTICAL ASSET ALLOCATION:
ASSET ALLOCATION FOR THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT

  • Proactive short-term adjustments informed by our macro view.
  • Robust framework ensures risk remains consistent with mandate.

INVESTMENT SELECTION:
BUILDING THE PORTFOLIO

  • Style agnostic approach to fund selection.
  • Sector specialists drive best-in-class fund selection.
  • Active management of foreign currency exposure.

Our global approach

Our approach is simple. By starting from a global perspective, we are free to invest in regions based on fundamental research, without being hampered by structural biases. 

Global markets provide investors with broad exposure to all regions and sectors. Global diversification reduces the concentration risk of investing in one region. Various regions experience economic cycles at contrasting times, so investing globally can help provide more consistent returns over time. 

Our four regional offices put us within reach of you and your clients.

The South West is a creative and industrious hub. Attracting people from all walks of life, this is one of the most exciting places to work and live.
