Investment process
Premier Multi-Asset Monthly Income fund is designed to produce an attractive level of income which should grow over time. The focus is on delivering the right investment outcome for the fund by controlling the risk/return profile, which the team do by taking a true multi-asset approach. They use a broad range of assets, investments, managers and funds. The fund is a constituent of the IA Mixed Investment 20%–60% Shares sector and, as such, has a maximum 60% equity exposure (including convertibles). The team would expect to hold a minimum of 30% in a combination of cash and bonds. Each core holding typically makes up between 3% and 5% of the portfolio and satellite positions each accounting for between 1% and 3%. In terms of the bond holdings within the fund, a minimum of 50% must be held in investment grade or equivalent, with high yield capped at 50%.
Risk
Every asset can be risky in isolation and the team believe the best way of controlling risk is to diversify. Premier Multi-Asset Monthly Income will aim to provide equity-like returns with less volatility through a multi-asset, multi-manager, multi-structure in a diversified and actively managed portfolio.
ESG
ESG - Integrated
ESG considerations are embedded into the process through a number of initiatives, such as the firm’s environmental committee helping the transition to a net-zero carbon economy and participation in the climate change disclosure initiative.
At the multi-asset level, all the teams engage with the firms’ head of responsible investing – with 100% of the firms’ underlying holdings now signed up to the UN supported Principles of Responsible Investing (PRI).
The team incorporates ESG considerations into broad asset allocation decisions, evaluating areas of growth, as well as those facing challenges in the transition to a low carbon economy. All ESG elements are considered individually in the research analysis for every recommendation. The team actively allocates investment opportunities linked to sustainability in delivering performance consistent with a mandated objective.
