Our view on this Fund Management Group as a whole
The group has gone through some dramatic changes both internally, with shake ups in their fund range, and externally as a result of having been bought by the Prudential. Changes over the last few years to both the team and the investment philosophy has led to an improvement in performance across a range of funds. One sector in which they have been successful is in corporate bonds, where assets under management have grown enormously, and has provided a core element of their unit trust business. Their equity business is now equally competitive in the market place with performance speaking for itself across a range of funds including their UK and global products.

Our view on this sector
This sector contains a diverse mix of funds so check the investment strategy before you invest. Some funds can provide good all round exposure to world markets, allowing investors to benefit from a wide range of economies, others are more specialist. The credit crunch has affected world markets and this will be reflected in fund returns.
