INTRODUCING THE WeAltHseleCt mAnAGeD poRtFolIo seRvICe

the Wealthselect managed portfolio service provides a practical and cost-effective way to manage your investments, keeping them on track with your aims and providing you with regular information on them.

This guide explains what managed portfolios are, the benefit of this service, how your investment in your chosen portfolio will be managed, and what the alternatives are.

WealthSelect Managed PortfolIoS

A WealthSelect Managed Portfolio contains a basket of funds representing a variety of assets classes: UK and global stocks and shares, property, fixed interest, and cash. Each portfolio contains different proportions of these assets, according to the balance of risk and reward that it is designed to achieve.

The funds that are used in the portfolios are some of the best known in the market from leading fund management groups.

managed portfolios typically contain different mixtures of assets, chosen so that the performance of each portfolio matches a particular client risk profile. When you invest in a managed portfolio, investment experts make the decisions about the choice of funds to buy and sell and when to make changes to the asset mix.

your WealthSelect Managed PortfolIo

The Managed Portfolio recommended by your adviser holds a combination of carefully researched funds from our Global Partners featuring some of the best known fund management names in the industry. Our Global Partners are 17 fund groups we have partnered with who are all high quality investment houses, offer a broad range of strategies and are home to some of the UK’s best fund managers.

The particular Managed Portfolio chosen for you will be the one judged by your financial adviser as most likely to deliver your objectives and stay within the investment risk level you agree with them.

Matched to your rISk ProfIle

WealthSelect Managed Portfolios are designed to match different Old Mutual Wealth ‘risk profiles’ from 3 (low) to 10 (high) and are tailored for the specific investment product wrapper involved: ISA, Collective Retirement Account, Collective Investment Bond or Collective Investment Account.

It’s important to bear in mind that all investments involve some risk and that the value of your Managed Portfolio can go down as well as up. Having an understanding of the way your investments behave will help you feel comfortable about such variations. That’s why the risk profiling discussion with your financial adviser is an important part of the investment process.

You can find out more about risk profiling by reading the booklet: ‘Understanding risk’ available from your financial adviser.

actIvely Managed

To achieve consistency with your investment goals, our portfolio managers constantly monitor the funds within your portfolio to make sure they are achieving their investment objectives. If any adjustments to the fund mix are needed, our portfolio managers will make them and issue regular updates.

WHO IS INVOLVED IN THE WEALTHSELECT MANAGED PORTFOLIO SERVICE AnD WHAt Do tHeY Do?

9

1. IS the WealthSelect Managed PortfolIo ServIce rIght for Me?

Your financial adviser has recommended a suitable Managed Portfolio because in their judgement, it best reflects your investment objectives, your personal circumstances, and your attitude to risk, as reflected by your ‘risk profile’. The discussion you have with your adviser about this is key to making sure they identify the right Managed Portfolio for your needs.

As well as establishing your attitude to risk, you and your adviser will need to consider a number of factors including the following.

• cost – How cost-sensitive are you? The funds in the WealthSelect Managed Portfolios typically have lower annual management charges than those available from our SelfSelect range (see page 11).

• Investment knowledge and experience – To what extent do you want to be involved in portfolio building and management? With the Managed Portfolio Service all investment decisions are made by the portfolio managers. The Service is not suitable if you want to make your own decisions about the contents of your portfolio.

• breadth of choice – Are you happy with the selection of high quality funds used to construct the WealthSelect Managed Portfolios or do you want the flexibility and wider choice available through our SelfSelect range? (See page 10).

• reporting – How frequently do you need to review your investments and how much detail do you require? Regular reporting is provided as part of the Managed Portfolio Service.

2. hoW WIll I knoW hoW My Managed PortfolIo IS PerforMIng?

Every quarter you will receive a Portfolio Report and Valuation, direct from your financial adviser. In addition to an up-to-date valuation, you will get a full break-down of how your portfolio is invested and details of any significant changes made to your portfolio during the previous quarter.

Your adviser can also provide you with a valuation update at any time between quarterly reports.

3. can I change to another Managed PortfolIo?

Yes. If your investment goals change, you and your adviser may decide that another Managed Portfolio is more suitable. Your adviser will run through the risk profiling process again to see whether a change is appropriate, then make their recommendation. Old Mutual Wealth will make no charge for changing your portfolio. Depending on the contract you have agreed with your financial adviser, they may charge a fee for their advice about this.

4. can I Make a change to the fundS In My Managed PortfolIo?

Because the portfolios are actively managed on a discretionary basis, the balance of funds within them can only be adjusted, and the funds themselves changed, by the portfolio manager. If you or your financial adviser want to make a change you can do so, but it will automatically mean that the Managed Portfolio Service will stop and any future changes to the funds in your portfolio (‘fund switches’) will be for you to decide.

Old Mutual Wealth does not make a charge when you switch funds. If you have agreed a fund switching fee with your adviser, you can ask us to pay it on your behalf from your investment.

5. can I change My MInd once I have InveSted In a Managed PortfolIo?

If you invest in a Managed Portfolio and later wish to opt out you can do so easily, without charge and without having to sell any of the underlying funds. This enables you to take back control of your portfolio if you need to and manage the timing of any further changes you wish to make.

6. What If I Want to InveSt In a WIder range of fundS?

The WealthSelect Managed Portfolio Service is designed to cover most investment goals and attitudes to risk. However, it may be that you and your adviser want to explore a wider range of funds. If so, you and your adviser can build your own individual portfolio using our SelfSelect fund range, rather than use one of the Managed Portfolios.

Your adviser will be able to explain the pros and cons, including the differences in cost.

7. What If I have a coMPlaInt about the Managed PortfolIo ServIce?

If your portfolio is for an ISA or a Collective Investment Account, your contract for the Managed Portfolio Service is directly with your financial adviser and they have the responsibility for dealing with any complaints you may have.

If your portfolio is for a Collective Retirement Account or a Collective Investment Bond, your contract for the service is directly with Old Mutual Wealth Life & Pensions Limited, and you should therefore direct any complaints to Old Mutual Wealth Life & Pensions Limited, Head Office, Old Mutual House, Portland Terrace, Southampton, SO14 7AY.

As a customer of Old Mutual Wealth, your rights to regulatory protection under Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) rules, and to any compensation under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, are detailed in the Key Features Document for the product in which you are investing. Those rights are not affected by the Managed Portfolio Service.
