* A fund's KIID Synthetic Risk and Reward Indicator (SRRI) is a regulatory measurement that is, where possible, calculated from the volatility of a fund’s weekly performance over a five-year period. This is calculated by and sourced from third party Asset Managers, who submit this information to data providers. The methodology is set by the Committee of European Securities Regulators (CESR). In producing this report, we have used the SRRI scores of the oldest/primary share classes, as determined by Morningstar Direct (our data supplier), but we do not vouch for their accuracy. It is important to note that different share classes may have differing SRRI scores and that SRRI scores can change at any time. |
At The Adviser Centre, our primary aim is to support financial professionals in their fund selection and suitability work through independently-minded research, borne of decades of industry experience. Our process is framed by the fundamental concepts of “quality”, “value” and “utility”, through which we answer the key questions of why to invest in a fund, how it is likely to behave and how it can be deployed.
The Adviser Centre team members are some of the most experienced in the fund research industry. We can always look forward to robust and constructive discussions and we have great respect for their views and perspectives, which, given the breadth of their fund and market knowledge, come from an extremely well-informed position.
We have known and worked with the team for several years and we value their experience and the insights they provide to our own investment process. The service differentiates itself by its more focused nature and the information on their factsheets is useful in emphasising a fund’s key mandate, exposure and style biases, helping to explain the risk/return journey that our customers can expect.
