This session will cover an introduction to Premier Miton’s new low cost multi-asset solution, the Premier Managed Index Balanced Fund. The fund will be actively managed across asset classes, using index-tracking investments.

Wayne was previously the Senior Fund Manager and Head of Discretionary for the UK multi-asset team at HSBC Global Asset Management and is a highly experienced managed index multi-asset portfolio manager. He will discuss the role and value of active management in building managed index, multi-asset portfolios, and will examine and analyse the range of traditional and non-traditional beta allocation investments available, making this type of low cost multi-asset solution a compelling investment proposition.

David Jane, Fund Manager; MI Miton Cautious Monthly Income Fund

With bond yields at unprecedented lows and equity markets near all-time highs, David will explain how he generates an attractive and sustainable yield for income seeking investors in an ultra-low interest rate environment, from a diversified multi-asset portfolio with a cautious investment approach.

Simon Evan-Cook, Fund Manager

Simon Evan-Cook takes a look at what investments have worked well over the last decade, and what might work well over the next. In doing so, he questions what risks are being built into clients’ portfolios, and what damage these might cause in the coming years.
