Believe it or not some people position their portfolios very defensively in case of a stock market crash.

And in the long term that will hurt their performance significantly. It's a trade off obviously. If you compared the equivalent of 20 vs 100 starting in say 2006, eg precrash, 100 would crush 20. Unless if courses you had the uncanny ability to predict crashes (and by extension booms) and switch in and out with perfect market timing in which case you'd not need funds like this.

The new JPMorgan Global Core Real Assets (JARA) Trust looks interesting.

Thanks everyone for their informative replies which is much appreciated. Just to add that the intention is to take the natural yield from the investments wherever possible which leaves an opportunity for further growth. I'm currently invested in funds that have a UK/Global bias none of which are trackers.

Thanks again.

Hi guys

I'm close to moving some of my portfolio into these types of funds to start taking an income from them. I'd appreciate a little guidance on the types of funds available.

What method of income draw are you proposing to use?
e.g. yield, phased portfolio risk, capital growth sales etc

I'd appreciate a little guidance on the types of funds available.

Without knowing your strategy, we cannot possibly suggest funds.

Yield preferably as part of supplementing my DBs

If you are looking for natural income in the form of dividends, then Equity Income ITs or funds are more appropriate than Multi Asset funds as discussed earlier in the thread, although you could alternatively take income from Total Return by selling units from a Multi Asset fund.

Bought some of this at IPO as a bit of a diversifier. Its still too new to know how it will perform long term but its been a promising start.
