Which portfolio best describes you as an investor?
Conservative
The Conservative Portfolio reflects a conservative trade-off between potential return and risk. An emphasis on defensive, income oriented assets is consistent with a lower level of volatility and relatively predictable income streams. The potential to generate some capital growth over the long-term (and supplement income), which is of secondary importance is provided by limited exposure to shares.
This portfolio generally has 80% in defensive investments (i.e. Cash & Fixed Income) and 20% in growth investments (i.e. Shares & Listed Property).
Conservative moderate
The Conservative Moderate Portfolio reflects a trade-off between income and growth but with a greater influence towards income orientated investments. There is acceptance of occasional losses and there is potential to generate some capital appreciation over the long term.
This portfolio generally has 60 – 70% in defensive investments (i.e. Cash & Fixed Income) and 30 - 40% in growth investments (i.e. Shares & Listed Property).
Balanced
The Balanced Portfolio reflects a moderate trade-off between potential return and risk. An exposure to less volatile income orientated assets is combined with growth investments.
This portfolio generally has 50% in defensive investments (i.e. Cash & Fixed Income) and 50% in growth investments (i.e. Shares & Listed Property).
Moderate growth
The Moderate Growth Portfolio reflects a trade-off between income and growth investments with a particular emphasis on growth investments over the long term. This portfolio offers higher than average potential capital appreciation over the long term with above average volatility. There is a broad range of asset classes within the portfolio.
This portfolio generally has 30% in defensive investments (i.e. Cash & Fixed Income) and 70% in growth investments (i.e. Shares & Listed Property).
Growth
The Growth Portfolio has a significant emphasis on more volatile investments. This strategy is consistent with a reasonably aggressive attitude toward assuming greater volatility in return for the potential to earn higher returns. Also, a willingness to forgo and reinvest the majority of any income earned for future capital growth.
This portfolio generally has 5 - 15% in defensive investments (i.e. Cash & Fixed Income) and 85-95% in growth investments (i.e. Shares & Listed Property).
