    Linton:
    In my view if you use a core it should be as broad as possible covering the bulk of your desired allocation.
    Do you think "Vanguard FTSE Dev World - Ex UK" will serve better in that sense ?

    I researched much of Vanguards range before I invested into L&G Global 100.
    Thanks for your reply. How much % have you allocated to this fund and have you had it for long ?

    Also a core fund could be a low cost multi asset fund at your preferred level of risk , rather than a 100% equity index fund.
    Okay, do you think "BG Managed" can be one of them or are there any other multi-asset core-friendly multi asset funds avoiding Lifestrategies ?
    Other multi asset funds often mentioned are HSBC global strategy, Blackrock Consensus, Legal and General multi index, Fidelity multi allocator and Architas Passive ( slightly more expensive )
