What is passive investing?
When we talk about passive investing in our solutions, we’re talking about multi-asset investment solutions built from predominantly passively managed funds.
The passive funds we use are designed to replicate the returns of the index we use as a benchmark for each asset class. While investors in passive funds will not outperform the index, they are also unlikely to materially underperform.
Due diligence that’s anything but passive
In a rigorous process incorporating both quantitative and qualitative evaluation, we aim to select passive funds that closely track market indices at a competitive cost, with limited counterparty risk and the potential to provide market returns over the long term.
Our passive funds look beyond cost
Choosing the right approach to passive investing requires careful consideration. Our passive Managed Portfolio Service looks beyond simply cost, to factor in fund tracking error, stock lending policies, replication methods, derivatives usage and more.
