Chart Details

  • If you hover your cursor on your computer, or touch your smart device screen over the “double over a decade” line on the chart, you can see that 100% invested became 200% on 01/01/2018, which was 10 years from commencement.
  • To remain on target, savings must double again to 400% by 01/01/2028. (100 x 2 = 200, 200 x 2 = 400).
  • Growth to our moderate managed portfolio has now added 199% to the original capital invested.
  • Every £100 invested originally is now worth £299.

Our Calculations

  • The Managed Portfolio returns are net of all charges. It is the actual return received by clients.
  • Any Index shown is a total return including dividends. It is a hypothetical return as it is not possible to invest directly in an index. A fair comparison would deduct both a fund charge and a platform charge which would cost upwards of 1/3rd of a percent (0.33%) per annum.

Risk Warnings

It’s important to remember;

  • Past performance isn’t necessarily a guide to the future.
  • The value of investments can go down as well as up.


A typical Balanced long-term (+5 years) asset allocation would invest between 40% and 85% (dependant on the financial climate) in equities with the remaining percentage being invested in a combination of fixed income paying investments, alternatives and cash. Moderate level investment risk.

Industry data suggests around 2/3rds of all investors are comfortable invested in a managed balanced portfolio or fund.

The goal of this portfolio is to attempt to double your savings every decade.

A 7% per annum compound return is required to turn every original £100 into £200 over 10 years.
