Tactical change – 08 September 2022

Trevor Greetham has made a tactical change to the asset allocation of the Governed Portfolios (GPs) and Governed Retirement Income Portfolios (GRIPs).

What’s changing?

We have further reduced our exposure to risk assets, given worsening macro outlook and the recent confirmation from central banks that tighter policy will be needed to control inflation. 

We have sold equities and high yield bonds, moving further underweight these asset classes.

We have also reduced our exposure to bonds at the margin, expecting that tighter policy will put further upward pressure on yields.

We have also maintained a modest underweight position in commercial property.
