Finding and monitoring the best investment talent requires specialist knowledge, detailed analysis and a lot of legwork. So, to help in carrying out its role, the St. James's Place Management Team is assisted by a number of independent investment consultancy firms. The consultants’ independence ensures that they can operate with complete objectivity when fulfilling their research and monitoring role.
In the same way as the fund managers, each of the consultants is engaged on the strength of their skills in particular areas of the investment world.
Access to this kind of expertise is not normally available to individual clients; this is another example of the rigorous and distinctive process that helps reassure our clients that their money is in good hands.
Our investment consultants play a vital role in the selection and monitoring of the fund managers, as well as assisting the Investment Management Team with investment strategy and the development of our fund range. This forms a part of our plan, design, review process, helping our Partners design best-in-class investment solutions that align with their clients’ long-term goals.
The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
The St. James's Place approach to investment management only applies to St. James's Place products.
