*From 1 July 2012 fund groups are required to provide a Key Investor Information Document (KIID) for all UCITS funds. Advisers, with the help of providers, are required by this legislation to provide a KIID to their client for each investment into a new fund. Further guidance on the UCITS IV European Directive and the implementation of KIIDs, and when they need to be used can be found here.

Portfolio building

Our fund ranges give you a comprehensive choice of individual funds across asset types and geographic sectors, alongside ‘packaged’ portfolio solutions. This enables you to build a portfolio for each of your clients that match their attitude to risk in the following ways:

 

Self Select Funds   Pre-defined portfolios (PDPs)
Our Self Select range offers a choice of over 1,100 funds and portfolio planning tools to make building bespoke portfolios a straightforward process.   You can build PDPs using the Self Select range. Our bulk switching facility makes this process much easier to manage for financial advisers with the authority to manage investments.
