Fund insights

Detailed information extracted from the fund factsheet.

Managed by Aberdeen Investments, Vanguard Asset Management (Europe)

Derivatives

The fund and its holdings may use derivatives for the purpose of efficient portfolio management, reduction of risk or to meet its respective investment objective if this is permitted and appropriate. The Fund may use investment techniques (including derivatives) to seek to protect and enhance the value of the Fund and to manage the Fund’s risks. Derivatives, such as futures, options and swaps, are linked to the rise and fall of other assets. The fund does not make extensive use of derivatives.

Securities lending

The assets in this fund may be used for the purpose of security lending in order to earn an additional level of return and offset the cost of the fund.

ESG & sustainability

The Fund is classified as Article 6 under the EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (“SFDR”). Article 6 funds don't promote ESG characteristics or have a specific sustainable investment objective. Some of the underlying components of this fund are managed using an investment process that integrates environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors but does not promote ESG characteristics or have specific sustainable investment objectives. This means that whilst ESG factors and risks are considered, they may or may not impact portfolio construction. Furthermore, investments within this Fund do not take into account the EU Taxonomy criteria for environmentally sustainable economic activities. Aberdeen Investments, the investment manager of some of the fund holdings, integrates sustainability risks and opportunities into its research, analysis and investment decision-making process. Aberdeen Investments believes that the consideration of sustainability risks and opportunities of a company can have a material impact on a company’s competitive position and future success and as such on long-term investment returns for investors. Aberdeen Investments' ESG integration requires, in addition to its inclusion in the investment decision making process, appropriate monitoring of sustainability considerations in risk management, portfolio monitoring, engagement and stewardship activities. Aberdeen Investments also engages with policymakers on ESG and stewardship matters. Combining the integration of sustainability risks and opportunities with broader monitoring and engagement activities may affect the value of investments and therefore returns. Vanguard Asset Management (Europe), the investment manager of some of the fund holdings, believe that active stewardship helps to create long-term value for investors. As an investment product and service provider and distributor, Vanguard Europe has a responsibility to maximise long-term returns for investors and considers sustainability risks from a financial-impact perspective. Vanguard Europe fulfils its responsibility to investors by being judicious in the funds it offers, managing those funds with rigour and assessing material risks to long-term financial performance.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Standard Life MyFolio Market I.

The Standard Life Ireland MyFolio Market I Fund aims to deliver total return from income and capital growth over the longer term. It invests across a broad mix of equities, fixed and variable rate bonds, property, money market instruments, deposits and cash. The fund typically has a high exposure to lower risk assets such as bonds, so it is positioned more defensively than a multi-asset fund with a heavier equity bias.

The Standard Life Ireland MyFolio Market I Fund mainly gains exposure to equities and fixed and variable rate bonds by investing in passively managed funds. Its property exposure is obtained mainly through actively managed funds. This means much of the portfolio is built through other collective investment schemes rather than holding all underlying securities directly.

The Standard Life Ireland MyFolio Market I Fund is designed for investors seeking long-term growth with a stronger tilt towards lower risk assets. Because it typically holds a high allocation to bonds, it may suit investors who want diversified exposure but are less comfortable with a more aggressive equity-heavy portfolio. However, it still carries market risk, so returns can fluctuate.

The Standard Life Ireland MyFolio Market I Fund is exposed to equity, bond, property, emerging market and inflation risk, among others. For example, bond risk means bond prices can fall when interest rates rise, while property risk means values can move down if real estate markets weaken. Because the fund also uses underlying collective investment schemes, index tracking, index sampling, derivatives and securities lending, investors also face risks linked to those techniques.

Yes, the Standard Life Ireland MyFolio Market I Fund may use derivatives for efficient portfolio management, to reduce risk or to support its investment objective, but it does not make extensive use of them. Derivatives are financial contracts whose value moves with another asset, so they can magnify gains or losses. The fund may also use securities lending to earn additional return and help offset costs.
