Each of CFS's multi-manager funds are managed by a handful of specialist portfolio managers. These managers must meet a strict criteria and complement their peers, leading to more diversified investments, optimised performance and reduced risk, providing clients with a well-rounded and potentially more stable portfolio.

Risk management
Diversification

Multi-manager investing spreads investments across various asset classes and/or styles, reducing risk by avoiding over-concentration in a single strategy or sector.

Diversification

Utilising specialised managers allows investors to benefit from the expertise of professionals skilled in specific areas, potentially leading to better investment decisions and higher returns.

Diversification

With multiple managers overseeing the fund, the risk is distributed, enhancing the fund's resilience against market fluctuations and unexpected events, providing a more stable investment experience for investors.
