The fund aims to minimise the risk of capital loss over a typical investment cycle whilst targeting an annual yield between 3% and 5%, although this is not guaranteed. The fund achieves this by investing in a broad range of assets focused on higher income generation, such as bonds and shares with higher than average dividend yields.
The fund looks to deliver a sustainable level of income, while at the same time minimising the level of risk and reducing the chances of capital loss over a typical market cycle (often five years or more). To do this, the portfolio invests in collective investments, such as funds and ETFs, and direct securities such as bonds and shares where appropriate, to deliver exposure to a highly diversified portfolio of assets including shares, bonds, property and cash. In this way it aims to deliver long-term returns with a more predictable investment journey by smoothing out the worst of market volatility.
The AJ Bell investment team uses in-house modelling to deliver a long-term approach that combines different assets. This aims to deliver income and capital returns efficiently, while minimising the risk required in the portfolio in order to achieve the investment objective.
To deliver income the portfolio invests in a wide range of strategies that may include both actively managed and passive strategies. This gives exposure to a variety of asset classes across a diversified range of global markets. The portfolio looks to gain exposure to high quality active managers who have the potential to outperform markets over time, but it will only use these where there is conviction that this still makes sense when considering distributed income and manager fees, otherwise low cost passive investments are utilised. Our focus on long-term investing helps minimise transaction costs, ensuring there is a minimal impact on the fund. However, the fund is actively managed and underlying holdings will be changed when appropriate.
