Target a balance of income and capital growth over the long term with this mixed asset fund.
Including bonds and equities in a portfolio can help drive income generation across all market conditions. We examine opportunities from across the credit spectrum and combine these with European equities.
After years of low and falling yields, today’s higher interest rates environment means that bond yields are more attractive again. And fixed income is offering some of the best opportunities since the global financial crisis.
But market volatility hasn’t gone away, which means flexibility is as important as ever.
Following years of low interest rates and falling bond yields, inflation is building. This might mean higher interest rates and potential volatility in markets.
Adaptability is required to navigate this investment backdrop whilst finding opportunities to generate a sustainable income.
So whether it’s school fees, buying property, or funding a comfortable retirement, we believe our flexible mixed asset strategies can help achieve your objectives.
Mixed asset strategies combine highly active fixed income and equity allocations, with the aim of producing optimum income levels.
Bonds seek to deliver a steady income stream whilst offsetting equity volatility. Meanwhile, equities can give exposure to the typically higher returns produced by stock markets.
Asset allocation can change depending on market conditions and is critical to the success of the strategies. Without the constraints of benchmarks, we can flex to become more defensive or offensive.
Over 20 years’ experience in mixed asset investing gives us confidence operating across the fixed income and equity spectrum. That means we can decisively make the right calls and adjust the weightings.
When we build our portfolios, we aim to find opportunities that provide a reward for taking calculated risks.
This means hunting for examples of mispricing caused by market inefficiencies. And our research helps unearth bonds with strong balance sheets and predictable potential cashflows.
We don’t have biases and instead operate an unconstrained approach. Not having credit, sector or geographical limitations allows us to go further in the search for yield.
The equity allocation is predominantly focused on companies with the ability to pay strong and sustainable dividends. We target companies with visible revenues and profits that create shareholder value.
This broader remit, including scope to use derivatives as a means of finding additional income, is designed to help deliver strong returns relative to competitors.
By seeking out these fixed income and equity investments, we aim to provide you with the opportunity to benefit from the best of both worlds.
So, as markets enter a new phase of uncertainty, it might be time to take a fresh look at our mixed asset income solutions. Our focus on selecting the best income opportunities could play a key role in achieving your desired outcome.
