Important

The portfolio is managed on a discretionary basis therefore the investment manager may make changes to the investments held without notice. Investors are agreeing to the investment model as recommended by an Adviser and may not be investing into the specific assets included in this factsheet. The factsheet will be updated and made available as soon as is practicable following a change made by the investment manager. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed, so you may get back less than you invested. If you invest in currencies other than your own, fluctuations in currency value will mean that the value of your investment will move independently of the underlying asset. Consideration should be given to whether it is felt that the outcome of any risk assessment is accurate and advice should be sought for factors such as investment objectives, the investment term, attitude to risk, capacity for investment loss and the level of inflation. This illustrative document is intended for investors where advice has been given by Advisers. Models are prepared in accordance with the stated objective and not client circumstances.

Objective To protect capital values against the effects of inflation over the medium to long term, whilst minimising the effects of market downturns.

1.40% 0.75% Nil 0.10% 2

Objective To provide capital growth over the medium to long term through a diversified portfolio of funds investing in global equities.

Strategy Investing only in equities, the portfolio is designed to maintain a global exposure and focusses on funds whose remit is to invest in areas of the world’s equity markets which, although possibly more volatile, we believe offer the prospect of higher long term capital growth. In line with the desire to maintain a balance of investments around the globe, UK equities will usually represent at most 20% of the portfolio.

The portfolio is managed on a discretionary basis therefore the investment manager may make changes to the investments held without notice. Investors are agreeing to the investment model as recommended by an Adviser and may not be investing into the specific assets included in this factsheet. The factsheet will be updated and made available as soon as is practicable following a change made by the investment manager. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed, so you may get back less than you invested. If you invest in currencies other than your own, fluctuations in currency value will mean that the value of your investment will move independently of the underlying asset. Consideration should be given to whether it is felt that the outcome of any risk assessment is accurate and advice should be sought for factors such as investment objectives, the investment term, attitude to risk, capacity for investment loss and the level of inflation.

Mixed Investments 0%-35% Shares Portfolio

Performance Comparator: Launch Date: Expected yield: Portfolio OCF: Initial Fee: Management Fee: Lowes Risk Level:

IA Mixed Investment 0% - 35% Shares sector average 30/11/2020

Objective To provide a total return over the medium to long term, mainly through income generation, which is sufficient to provide some capital growth, after inflation, but with a focus on keeping a low level of volatility.

2.74% 0.70% Nil 0.10% 2+

Strategy The portfolio invests in a diversified range of funds across multiple asset classes, such as equities, fixed interest and direct commercial property. Investing in line with the parameters of the Investment Association Mixed Investment 0% - 35% Shares sector, this portfolio will never have more than 35% of its assets invested in equity funds and will also tend to have a bias towards the UK to reduce the effects of currency fluctuations. The lower equity content will hopefully reduce the volatility exhibited by this portfolio in all but the most extreme market conditions, but still produce sufficient returns to protect capital against the effects of inflation in the medium to long term.

Objective To provide capital growth over the medium to long term, mainly through income producing funds, making it suitable for those looking to make regular withdrawals, and with a focus on lower cost investments. Performance to 31 December 2021 1

Mixed Investments 20% - 60% Shares Portfolio

Performance Comparator: Launch Date: Expected yield: Portfolio OCF: Initial Fee: Management Fee: Lowes Risk Level:

IA Mixed Investment 20% - 60% Shares sector average 30/11/2020

Objective To provide a total return from a combination of income and some capital growth over the medium to long term, sufficient to allow a low level of income to be taken whilst protecting capital against the effects of inflation.

2.62% 0.74% Nil 0.10% 2+

Strategy The portfolio invests in a diversified range of funds across multiple asset classes, such as equities, fixed interest and direct commercial property. Investing in line with the parameters of the Investment Association Mixed Investment 20% - 60% Shares sector, this portfolio will always have at least 20% of its assets invested in equity funds but never more than 60%. The slightly higher equity content should provide for some capital growth even when taking a modest level of income, whilst the balanced nature of the different asset classes should provide a lower level of volatility compared to portfolios with a higher equity content.

Objective To provide capital growth over the medium to long term, mainly through income producing funds, making it suitable for those looking to make regular withdrawals, and with a focus on lower cost investments. Performance to 31 December 2021 1

Objective To provide a combination of both income and capital growth over the medium to long term.

Strategy The portfolio invests in a diversified range of funds across multiple asset classes, such as equities, fixed interest and direct commercial property. Investing in line with the parameters of the Investment Association Mixed Investment 40% - 85% Shares sector, this portfolio will always have at least 40% of its assets invested in equity funds but never more than 85%. Usually having the majority of its assets invested in equities, this portfolio should provide capital growth as well as allowing a certain level of income to be taken. Whilst exhibiting more volatility than the portfolios with a lower equity exposure, this portfolio would still hopefully provide some protection compared to a pure equity portfolio in a falling market.
