Features and benefits

Dedicated portfolio management

We focus on investing for the very long term.

Your portfolio will benefit from the expertise of our in-house asset class specialists and tactical market positioning, as well as research from across the Barclays Group. We’re unconstrained in selecting the ideas that are most suited to your needs and objectives from across our global network.

Range of solutions

We design multi-asset class portfolios that match your individual risk profile and investment objectives. Depending on your circumstances, our fixed income and equity solutions might be the right fit for you. We also have bespoke solutions for some larger portfolios.

Online access and complete control

Our online investment management platform gives you on-the-go access to your investments. This constant oversight combined with regular reports and the opportunity to take control when you want to, gives you complete control over your investments.

We are proud to have an investment strategy that leads with conviction, seeks out the best opportunities while managing risk and preserving wealth

Strong, risk-adjusted returns

Our multi-asset class discretionary portfolio has followed the same strategy that focuses on diversified portfolios with a long term view since it began in 2006. As a result, it has demonstrated a consistently robust performance.

The performance shown relates to Moderate Risk – GBP portfolios1. Please note that the Barclays composite reflects UK-booked GBP moderate risk portfolios that follow our extended multi-asset class strategy, run by Barclays Private Bank.

The value of investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than your original investment.
