RBC Brewin Dolphin has added a passive fund range to its Voyager proposition, offering six risk-rated options that combine index fund exposure with access to alternative strategies.
The range comprises six funds with equity exposure ranging from 40% to 100%, giving advisers six options to match client profiles. All allocations are guided by the RBC Investment Committee.
They combine passive exposure across equities and bonds with allocations to its MI Select Managers (MISM) Alternatives fund. This multi-manager fund will provide exposure to gold, absolute return and listed property strategies.
The launch builds on the firm’s existing Passive Plus Managed Portfolio Service (MPS), which has grown to over £1.6bn since its launch in 2016.
David Hood, head of central investment solutions at RBC Brewin Dolphin, said: “Our new Voyager Passive Fund range provides an additional investment solution to help meet a range of client needs and risk appetites.
“By combining the cost efficiency of passive investing with the specialist expertise of our MISM alternatives platform, we’re providing advisers and their clients with accessible diversification and value generation opportunities.”
The launch follows the recent expansion of the MISM multi-manager range to six funds through the addition of the MISM Global & Emerging Opportunities fund, which offers exposure to Asia and emerging markets equity.
