Proven Track Record
The M&G Treasury and Investment Office (T&IO) is our team of in-house investment strategists and manager of managers. A large and well-resourced multi-asset team, they are responsible for the performance and direction of a number of funds, including the management of the underlying assets for the UK’s largest With-Profits Fund. The direction of this fund alone has led to it achieving a positive rolling 5 year return for every year (bar one) since 1946.
It is T&IO who are responsible for the strategic allocation of all underlying assets in our funds, in addition to full fund manager selection and oversight. They are also responsible for ensuring the risk characteristics of each portfolio meet given objectives over time. Stock selection is then carried out by fund managers chosen for their prowess in specific asset classes.
The team brings together expertise in capital market research, investment strategy design, liability management and portfolio management and more. T&IO has a global reach and close relationships with a number of high quality investment companies.
