Our global multi-asset approach remains overweight in equities in aggregate, with a value style in Europe, Japan, Emerging Markets, and the UK. We are also focusing on both Growth and Value styles within the US as well as investing across the full market cap spectrum in our equity allocation.

In Fixed Income, we maintain a barbell approach, balancing long-duration government debt with short-duration corporate credit to navigate varying market conditions and manage interest rate risk.

To enhance portfolio diversification and resilience, we integrate alternative assets, including infrastructure, gold, and defined return strategies, providing potential protection against volatility while capturing diverse income sources.

This multi-faceted approach aims to optimise returns across different market cycles, balancing growth potential with defensive qualities.
