Pyrford Global Total Return Class C - Income (GBP)
Our view on this Fund
This fund is on the Wealth Shortlist of funds our analysts believe have the potential to outperform their peers over the long term. However, this is not a recommendation to buy.
This fund aims to deliver a return ahead of inflation over the long term. While it won't shoot the lights out, the managers try to grow investors' wealth modestly over the long run, without all the significant ups and downs of investing fully in the stock market. We believe this makes it a great option for a more conservative portfolio, or a way to bring some stability to a broader investment portfolio. Like all investments it will still rise and fall in value, so investors could get back less than they invest.
The team behind the fund is made up of a number of highly experienced investors, including Tony Cousins who leads the team. Cousins is also Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of Pyrford. This increases his responsibilities, but we are comfortable he spends most of his time on fund management and that he receives vital support from the rest of the team. We also feel the team are on the front foot and prepared to change the asset mix depending on prevailing market conditions. We like their long-term, disciplined investment philosophy, which has been in place for many years.
