How we invest

Investment opportunities come from our ability to harvest the highest-conviction insights of our asset management teams. This covers equities, corporate and government bonds, global strategy, commercial property, currencies and interest rates.

The Multi-Asset Investing Team conducts its own research. Driven by our Focus on Change investment philosophy, the team focuses on the key factors driving asset valuations and the dynamics behind those drivers. Thorough analysis of these factors is at the heart of this approach, providing fertile ground for new investment ideas. The Team also discusses issues and market drivers with our asset class teams from across the business, gaining insights and distilling those offering the most powerful opportunities.

The Strategic Investment Group is the decision-making forum at which potential new strategies are reviewed, debated and approved. This high-profile investment group includes some of the company’s most senior investment professionals, including the Head of Multi-Asset Investing, Head of Corporate Bonds and the Head of Global Equities.
