Fund Aim

The Fund aims to deliver long-term growth by investing in other funds. The Fund invests primarily in equities, with a proportion in fixed interest securities, by investing in passive* index tracking funds. The equity investments cover a mix of geographic regions and can include the UK, other developed markets and emerging markets. The fixed interest securities can be in sterling or other currencies and may be issued by governments or companies.This Fund will be reviewed periodically by Scottish Widows. In future the Fund could be invested in different funds and additional asset types, though the Fund will continue to invest primarily in equities.*Passive management is where the fund manager aims to match a benchmark index and will buy, sell or hold investments depending on the components of that index.

Quarterly Fund Manager Review

In a volatile quarter, UK stocks rose overall. Initially, a weak pound boosted companies that make significant profits overseas, but shares fell after Boris Johnson became prime minister, as this was seen as increasing the chances of a no-deal Brexit. The market rallied in September, however, as the USChina trade dispute cooled and Parliament passed legislation to prevent a no-deal scenario. Government bond indices rose over the quarter. Initially, bond prices rose in reaction to the threat of global recession, political turmoil in Europe and anxiety over the escalation of the US-China trade dispute. In September, however, US Treasuries reversed direction, delivering their worst monthly performance in a year. This came as the Federal Reserve cut rates for the second time in the quarter but said that it expected no further cuts in 2019. The 10-year UK gilt yield fell from 0.83% to 0.49% over the quarter. Corporate bonds continued to rally in the third quarter, driven by the sharp fall in government bond yields, which meant that corporate bonds were seen as a more attractive investment.
