Mixed investment, multi-asset funds, make investing easier by combining different types of investments, like stocks, bonds, and cash, into one package. This mix helps spread out risk because you’re investing in more than just one type of asset. As the categories suggest, you can opt for different levels of risk to suit your needs.

This is an independently chosen list, so we do not receive a fee or commission from the fund provider if you invest in any of the funds.

Investing for longer increases the likelihood of positive returns. Over a period of 5 years or more, investments usually give you a higher return compared to cash savings. But investments can go down as well as up in value, so you could get back less than you put in. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may be subject to change in the future.
