Current Asset Allocation

Each of these portfolios contains different proportions of UK equities, international equities, bonds, cash and alternatives to reflect the investment aims of UK wealth managers. The changes in their values (i.e. the movement up or down of the UK shares, international shares, bonds etc) are represented by the movements of the related indices.

DATE: 9 February 2025

Following the recent review of survey data provided by participating member firms, the PIMFA Indices Committee agreed there will be no changes to the portfolio weights of the MSCI PIMFA Private Investor Index Series, please click here to view the decision taken.

Implementation dates for any potential/future asset allocation changes are aligned to MSCI’S Global Index Rebalancing Calendar and the table below will be updated to reflect this on 2nd March.

If you would like your firm to participate in the quarterly asset allocation surveys to ensure that the index weight methodology for the MSCI PIMFA Private Investor/MSCI PIMFA Equity Risk Index Series’ remain relevant benchmarks for the UK wealth management sector, please email indices@pimfa.co.uk for more information.
