Investment expertise
Connecting you with investment opportunities
Investments that cover all asset classes
With our strong global investment platform, a consistent investment philosophy and a team of professionals, we work in diverse geographic locations to take advantage of opportunities in the financial markets across the globe.
Our investment offering covers all asset classes – equities, fixed income (bonds), multi-asset, and the more complex alternative investments and liquidity asset classes. We manage these in many ways, including active and passive management, smart beta and factor-based investing. All our teams follow a common philosophy and a disciplined investment process, to ensure we deliver on our promises.
Of course, there is no assurance that any strategy or portfolio will achieve its investment objective. Investing is not without risks and the value of any investment can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount originally invested. Fixed income (bond) investments are subject to credit and interest rate risks. You should always consider seeking professional advice when thinking about undertaking any form of investment.
| Asset type | Description |
| Fixed income (bonds) |
We are one of the leading fixed income managers in the industry. We use the expertise of our specialists around the world, and we apply what works for clients in one area to clients everywhere. Our fund range covers different types of bonds including global, regional and single-country strategies. |
| Multi-asset |
We offer a range of multi-asset funds to match different investment goals and profiles, giving our clients the benefits of diversification through one single investment. We use the expertise of our specialists across the world and we apply strict controls, ensuring our funds remain on track with their long-term objectives. |
| Equities
|
Our wide range of innovative, client-focused equity solutions across the investment spectrum are all driven by proprietary fundamental research and a robust investment process. Our objective is to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns and to tailor equity strategies to investors' unique investment objectives. |
| Smart beta and factor-based solutions |
Smart beta and factor-based strategies offer investment options that lie between active and passive investing. We offer smart beta and factor-based strategies with global, regional and country-specific variations. |
|
Index-based investing |
We offer a wide range of index-based funds, also called passive funds, which aim to track the performance of a selected index. Our teams focus on two equally important objectives: tracking the index closely and adding value where appropriate. |
Specialist investments
Our more specialist investment offerings have additional risks specific to that asset class, and related products and services are not available to all clients. Alternative products can be highly speculative and are generally intended for experienced and financially sophisticated investors who are willing and able to bear the risks associated with such investments. Liquidity funds seek to preserve capital value, though there is no guarantee that a stable net asset value will be maintained and again it is possible to lose money by investing in this type of fund.
| Asset type | Description |
| Alternative investments | We have a long and proud history in Alternative investments, from when we first started advising clients on hedge fund investing in 1989. Our broad range of alternative investing solutions includes Hedge Funds, Private Equity, Real Estate and Infrastructure Debt. |
