Go back to the Summary
of the Assessment of
Value table
We have assessed the investment performance of the Fund against its stated
investment objective that is set out in its prospectus. We considered whether the
Fund has performed how we and investors would expect it to, given the market
conditions it has been operating under, and its investment philosophy, strategy
and process.
The Fund’s objective is to target a specific level of long-term volatility (15 years)
while trying to maximise the total return to the investor which may be in the form
of either income or capital growth.
We have reviewed the positioning of the portfolio and the expected future
volatility of the portfolio over the last year and can confirm that the Fund stayed
within its targeted risk band and is on track to meet the expected level of
volatility over the long term.
The Fund has delivered a return of 56.8% over the past five years.*
The Fund has seen positive returns across all equity markets. The strong
performance of US equities provided the biggest contribution while other
markets including UK, Japan, Emerging Markets and Europe were also positive
contributors. Overall, the Fund benefited from a higher allocation to equities,
including a significant exposure to US equities, compared to those Multi-Asset
Passive funds at the lower end of the risk scale.
