So, what are the Master Portfolios?
We’ve included a list of the five Portfolios and the objectives behind each one.
- Adventurous: This aggressive portfolio aims to generate a high level of capital growth by focusing on riskier areas like emerging markets and smaller companies.
- Medium Risk: This medium-risk portfolio aims for a reasonable return with less volatility than more aggressive options.
- Conservative: This defensive portfolio aims for modest growth whilst minimising volatility, though it can still fall in value.
- Investing for Children: Children usually have a long investment horizon, so this portfolio focuses on riskier areas with greater growth potential.
- Regular Income: This income portfolio is designed to produce a good level of income with the potential to grow and keep pace with inflation.
