Schroders rolls out alternatives fund to MPS clients

By Christian Mayes, 13 Oct 23

Fund provides investors with access to assets not directly available on UK retail platforms

Alex Funk

Schroder Investment Solutions (SIS) has launched the Schroder Alternatives fund.

The strategy is only available to clients already invested in the firm’s model portfolio service (MPS) range.

It will be managed by the SIS team, which is headed by CIO Alex Funk (pictured).

The alternatives fund aims to provide uncorrelated returns to traditional markets by offering investors access to investments that are not directly available on UK retail platforms.

Funk said: “It is crucial for us to continue innovating and striving to get our clients access to best-in-class investments across all asset classes to ensure we continue to deliver the best client outcomes.

“This highlights SIS’s commitment to providing clients with access to top-quality investment opportunities and staying ahead in the market.”
