Multi-manager portfolios - FirstChoice offers a range of 16 multi-manager portfolios which include 5 portfolios which invest accross a range of asset classes or 11 portfolios which predominantly invest in one asset class

How does FirstChoice construct the multi-manager portfolios?

Constructing the multi-manager portfolios is a three step process:

Step 1 - Select specialist managers for each asset class
When selecting investment managers for each asset class CFS aim to capture the competitive strengths of each manager. Key selection criteria such as organisational stability, performance track record and investment process are used in assessing investment managers.

Step 2 - Combine the managers
We aim to select a combination of managers whose investment styles are complementary. In other words, we choose a mix of managers that is likely to deliver more consistent returns so that performance is not dependent on a single manager or a single investment style.

Step 3 -Monitor ongoing quality
We regularly monitor the multi-manager portfolios and, when needed, make changes to seek improved performance and manage risk.

Single Manager Options
You can tailor your own investment portfolio by selecting one or more of the wide range of single manager options that CFS has selected due to their popularity among investors and their advisers.
