The Multi Asset Team at Royal London Asset Management have made a tactical change to the asset allocation of the Governed Portfolios (GPs) and Governed Retirement Income Portfolios (GRIPs). 

What’s changing?

Global equities have risen back to near all-time highs after some weakness earlier in the month; we remain modestly overweight stocks in the current backdrop. With global growth showing signs of softening and central bank rate cuts on the way, we have increased our overweight in government bonds. We remain underweight commodities that are expected to underperform in the current phase of the business cycle.
