Consistency is also what drives the investment approach that creates the diversified portfolios for a range of investment solutions, including the Model Portfolio Service from M&G Wealth Investments and the PruFund and the Risk-Managed range from Prudential.
It's a tried and tested approach, delivering consistent results and value for investors since 2004, through some of the most challenging market events.
The team at the heart of this approach is the M&G Treasury and Investment Office (T&IO) who are responsible for multi-asset portfolios distributed across the businesses of M&G plc. Their decades of expertise in asset allocation flow into every one of the multi-asset funds. And their core investment process underpins the performance of all the investment solutions available through M&G wealth.
This team can do the heavy lifting for you. They're with you, ready to take advantage of investment opportunities as they arise - across the globe.
Your team of investment experts sit across 3 key areas. Explore what they do and how they do it in the videos below.
With a philosophy and process 20 years in the making, the teams' first-hand experience in dealing with challenging market events like the financial crisis and Brexit, means they can draw on past learnings to help build resilience for the next. Their unrestricted access to resource across M&G and partners worldwide helps to deliver value in portfolios, striving for successful outcomes for investments and ultimately, clients.

The in-house modelling tool GENESIS is used to map a broad range of future scenarios, to help anticipate changes to interest rates, inflation and the impact of global events. With the aim of creating robust portfolios for clients, no matter how the markets are performing.
The team's regular interaction with M&G asset managers across 26 countries and external partners worldwide, means they have access to expertise where they need it, when they need it.
Unlike some others, the investment team doesn’t rely on third parties to make key investment decisions. They're empowered to make their own, enabling them to take advantage of global short term market opportunities quickly and independently.
The team creates their own building blocks and look for the best fund managers, or in the case of the Model Portfolio Service (MPS), combines internal vehicles or selects best of breed external managers. This means portfolios can be constructed in a way that maximizes potential returns, whilst staying true to the funds objective.
Diversifying portfolios gives your clients the best opportunity to capture returns and shield their investments from market volatility. The teams experience and understanding of a very wide range of asset classes, both in public and private markets, means your client benefits from the effects of a truly globally diversified portfolio.
