They are constructed using different asset classes including cash, Fixed Interest - such as Gilts - and Global Equities, thus giving a diverse portfolio of investment. Below is a summary of the last 5 years performance of our passive portfolios. Passive funds are low cost tracker index funds which helps to keep investment costs to a minimum. These portfolios have a fund charge averaging at 0.15% per annum. The data history is sourced via FE analytics. The full performance data can be downloaded here. Data updated 5th June 2017.
