JPMorgan Multi-Asset Growth & Income - Annual overview from QuotedData

3rd May 2023

Caution in the face of volatile markets

In a world of volatile equity markets and uncertain futures, MATE offers investors a refreshingly straightforward target of achieving an average of 6% compound annual returns over a rolling five-year period and paying an inflation-linked dividend.

MATE has now passed its five-year anniversary, and its life has been marked by two of the worst bear markets in recent memory. Given that we are in the grip of a painful downturn, it is unsurprising that MATE has fallen short of its target return. Commendably, the team has not taken on more risk in an attempt to catch up. As evidence of this, the standard deviation of MATE's net asset value (NAV) returns over the past five years is half that of the global equity market.

MATE's commitment to providing an attractive and growing income, is supported by its revised dividend policy. Its combination of target long-term returns and attractive income remains its defining feature, and one which sets it apart from its peers. MATE has also been able to sustain a narrow discount throughout 2022, and its shares currently trade on 3.3% discount to NAV.
