funds investment objectives and risk profiles

Coutts Managed Funds offer you a simple route into a dynamic, diversified portfolio. Their benefits include:

  • Greater diversification: your funds are invested across a wide range of asset classes, including equities, bonds, commodities, property and cash – all managed in a single dynamic investment. A wider spread of holdings across the portfolio helps to spread your investment risk.
  • Peace of mind: investing has become increasingly complex in recent years, with huge fluctuations in market fortunes and rapid developments in the investment vehicles you can use to gain exposure to assets. Keeping track of investment trends can be a full-time job – we have a long tradition of managing multi-asset discretionary portfolios for our clients. Coutts managed funds draw on our expertise and experience to make those decisions for you.
  • Added flexibility: the funds are available in both distributing and accumulating options to meet your needs. It's easy for us to set up facilities for you, such as regular contributions or withdrawals and annual use of ISA allowances. And daily dealing means that new monies are quickly invested.
  • Less paperwork: you have one investment in a portfolio rather than multiple holdings in a range of shares or bonds, which means less paperwork. Coutts managed funds ensure the seamless management of dividend payments, sales and purchases, and tax reporting within the funds.
  • Tax treatment: the fund structure offers a simpler tax proposition to investors in a variety of tax jurisdictions.

Investors with little or no experience of investing in collective investment schemes and basic or no knowledge of the characteristics and risks of investing in equities and bonds (capital markets). The minimum investment horizon is five years.

The long term asset mix is made up totally of Global Equities but with a larger proportion of equity investments in the UK (around 40%) than the UK’s share of global markets. The fund is actively managed so this mix can change over time.
