Multi Asset Portfolios
Sustainable Multi-Asset
This Sustainable service takes the same basic multi-asset approach, offering portfolios across different risk levels and objectives, but with the additional overlay of selecting assets based on our internally developed Sustainable Investment approach.
This generally screens out sectors such as those involved in harmful activities and investing in those making a positive impact on the world.
We only use the specific information you have provided to ensure the best recommendations for you, our client – this is gathered in our Client Profile Form at the on-boarding stage. Our Investment team will conduct an in-depth review of your current risk, objectives, time horizon and financial situation and discuss the optimum options to suit your individual needs.
If you would like to hear more, please get in touch with privateclients@aubreycm.co.uk or call our offices on +44 (0) 131 226 2083.
Warning
The value of your investments and its income may go down as well as up, and you may not get back the original amount you invested.
Our core investment philosophy within the Sustainable model is to focus on identifying growing companies, sectors and markets, and by extension managers who invest in these areas.
This largely screens out any ‘imperfect’ sectors such as banking, bulk chemicals, energy, extractive industries and tobacco, therefore is ideally suited and aligned to the management of sustainable portfolios.
Aubrey is a signatory to the UN-supported Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). The six Principles for Responsible Investment are a voluntary and aspirational set of investment principles that offer a menu of possible actions for incorporating ESG issues into investment practice. Please refer to our sustainability tab for more information.
The minimum overall investment per client to access the Aubrey multi asset portfolios is £250,000,
Should you wish to invest in more than one of the multi asset and/or directly invested portfolios, the minimum per portfolio is £100,000 (subject to the overall client minimum of £250,000).
Where any Aubrey in-house managed funds are selected for a client portfolio, these are excluded from the investment management fee.
A fee schedule will be provided at the onboarding stage, providing details of our fees and additional costs and charges information.
