1 St. James s Place Unit Trust Portfolios Helping you meet your investment goals At St. James s Place we offer a comprehensive range of Unit Trusts to meet the needs of all investors whether you are looking for income, growth, or a combination of both. To help you decide which of these funds are most appropriate we have created three model portfolios, each designed to meet different investment objectives. You may feel that one of these is right for you or, of course, you may wish to select your own combination of funds. These portfolios are also available for investment through an Individual Savings Account (ISA). Monthly Income Portfolio The Monthly Income Portfolio may be suitable for investors seeking: A regular monthly income. Access to UK equity income funds managed by some of the UK s best fund managers. Reduced risk through investment in fixed interest and corporate bonds. Commercial Property exposure to offer a truly diversified portfolio. This portfolio aims to pay an attractive yield and gives investors the opportunity to achieve an income that rises over time, as well as providing the potential for capital growth. Equity income funds achieve this by investing in high quality, cash-generative companies that can deliver sustainable dividend growth over the longer term, supplemented by capital growth in the underlying value of the company shares. The St. James s Place Investment Committee believes that this portfolio of funds is suitable for investors who consider themselves as Medium Risk on the Guide to Choosing Your Attitude to Risk. 1
