Gillian Hepburn, head of UK intermediary solutions, said Schroders’ UK Financial Adviser Survey highlighted the “growing appetite” among advisers for outsourced investment solutions, in particular multi-asset funds, and that performance and cost are the two key considerations when picking funds.
“We believe that advisers require a range of investment solutions within their centralised investment proposition and these funds sit alongside our full range of model portfolios (active, strategic index and sustainable) and the blended funds which combine active and passive investing."
