Aberdeen Asia Focus PLC (LSE:AAS)
| Asset group: | Fund manager: | Risk category: |
|---|---|---|
| Equities | Gabriel Sacks, Xin-Yao Ng | 4 |
Objective:
The Company aims to maximise total return to shareholders over the long term from a portfolio made up predominantly of quoted smaller companies in the economies of Asia excluding Japan.
Why consider this fund:
- Aberdeen Asia Focus PLC invests in high-quality, smaller companies across Asia, typically with market capitalisations up to £5bn. These are established, listed businesses that are often overlooked by mainstream funds - offering access to hidden gems in fast-growing Asian markets. Asian small caps have historically delivered stronger long-term returns than large caps, without consistently higher risk.
- The Trust’s portfolio is almost entirely distinct from typical Asia indices, providing diversified exposure to companies with strong growth potential.
- With over 30 years of experience and 39 analysts based across Asia, Aberdeen brings deep local insight to uncover under-researched opportunities and manage risk. As of 31 July 2025, the Trust has delivered over £2.1 million for ISA savers investing their full annual allowance since inception - the highest return of any Asia-focused investment trust in the Association of Investment Companies’ ISA Millionaire analysis.

abrdn-Short Dtd Enh Inc X Acc Hdg GBP (BS2BF34)
| Asset group: | Fund manager: | Risk category: |
|---|---|---|
| Fixed income | Mark Munro | 3 |
Objective:
The fund aims to achieve a combination of income and growth, whilst also aiming to provide liquidity and avoid loss of capital, by investing in bonds with a maturity of up to 5 years. The fund also aims to achieve a yield in excess of the Bloomberg Global Corporate Aggregate 1-3 Year Index (USD Hedged) over rolling three-year periods (before charges).
Why consider this fund:
- Access enhanced yield through global investment: The fund invests in a mix of short-duration corporate bonds, government bonds, and cash offering investors access to yield-enhancing opportunities. By investing globally, the fund taps into a broader range of bond markets, attracting potential for attractive yields, growth opportunities, or steady monthly income from current market yields.
- Low risk, high quality portfolio: The fund offers high quality by focusing on bonds with a minimum credit rating of A-, aiming for strong and reliable performance. By prioritising bonds with maturities of three years or less, the fund reduces interest rate sensitivity, making it a possible option for investors looking for stability and growth.
- Fast access: The fund offers the advantage of faster access to investments and redemptions with next-day (T+1) settlements, compared to the typical two or more-day periods. By investing in shorter maturity bonds and maintaining a high allocation to liquid assets, the Fund provides greater efficiency and flexibility for investors and their unique requirements.

MyFolio Index
The MyFolio Index Funds are designed to make investing quick and easy. You simply decide how much risk you are comfortable taking to select the appropriate fund. Aberdeen Investments will then do the rest to manage it in line with your chosen level of risk.
The fund manager invests your selected fund across a range of Aberdeen Investments tracker funds. These funds aim to replicate the performance of indexes, like the FTSE All-Share or the S&P 500. Each fund blends defensive assets (like cash and bonds, which are generally lower risk) with growth assets (such as equities, which offer higher potential returns but come with more risk). By combining these asset types, the fund aims to deliver the best possible return for each level of risk. As you move up the risk levels, you would typically expect to see a higher proportion invested in growth assets and less in defensive assets.
There are some additional costs associated with investing in funds, but you can feel reassured by the fact an expert is taking care of your money.
