What are managed portfolios?

What are managed portfolios?

A managed portfolio is a collection of investments that are selected and automatically adjusted for you according to market opportunities.

Each portfolio caters for a different risk appetite, ranging from low to high, and follows an investment strategy suited to your goals and profile.

You’ll have full transparency and control: you can monitor your investments 24 hours a day through our platform, and withdraw at any time for no extra cost.

When you invest in a SaxoSelect portfolio, you can rest assured that your money is in the best possible hands.

We’ve partnered with world-leading asset managers, including BlackRock and Morningstar, to create a range of low-cost, institutional-quality portfolios.

They are automatically rebalanced to adapt to changing market conditions, and continually target the highest returns for the risk-level taken.

Profile Questionnaire
To help us find the best portfolios for you, we ask that you complete your profile before investing. This is a required step in the investment process and only takes a few minutes.

Investment risk
Investing in financial products always involves risk. As a general rule, you should only invest in financial products if you understand the risks associated with them. Investing in a portfolio with currency that differs from the base currency of your account carries the risk of exposure to changes in the rate of exchange between them. See the full Managed Portfolio Disclaimer for more information.

What is the risk and expected return?

Risk and return come hand-in-hand. The more return you target, the more risk you must take.

Performance expected to be considerably lower than stock markets, but also much more stable. In an extreme scenario stock markets could lose 20% or more, whilst Low risk portfolios are expected to lose closer to 5% to 10%. 

Performance is expected to be less than stock markets, but also more stable. In an extreme scenario stock markets could lose 20% or more, whilst Medium risk portfolios are expected to lose closer to 10% to 15%.

Performance of High risk portfolios is expected to be similar to stock market performance. However, in an extreme scenario stock markets could lose 20% or more and is therefore considered high risk investing.

Frequently asked questions

If you don’t have a Saxo account, create one and add funds, considering the minimum investment amount required for the portfolio you’re interested in. Then follow these steps:

  1. Open the platform and click the ‘SaxoSelect’ tab
  2. Take the suitability test to determine your risk profile and the managed portfolios that are suitable for you
  3. Browse the portfolio options and choose one by clicking “Invest”
  4. Add the amount you’d like to invest and confirm your choices

If you already have a Saxo account, just access the ‘SaxoSelect tab’ in your platform and follow the steps above. The first time you invest in a managed portfolio you’ll have to take the suitability test, which is different from the appropriateness test (for self-directed investing).

This is a set of questions that will determine your risk profile and, based on it, the portfolio options that are suitable for you. Based on your answers, you may receive a risk profile that doesn’t match your initial portfolio choice, which means you won’t be able to invest in that portfolio. If this is the case, please check that your answers are accurate and contact us if you need clarification.

The suitability test is mandatory. It is the portfolio manager’s responsibility to ensure that the investment made on your behalf is suitable for you – and the suitability questions are the primary method for such determination.

Fees depend on the managed portfolio you choose to invest in. Please visit the individual portfolio pages above to check specific fees.

As with all investing, there is a relationship between the amount of risk you take and the level of returns you could receive (both positively and negatively). The risk profiles of managed portfolios indicate the potential severity of a loss (of value) during a negative period. As a reference, investing into stocks is considered high risk and during a bad period the stock market could lose around 20%, based on historic events.

Low risk portfolios are expected to experience much less fluctuation (of value) than stock markets;

Medium risk portfolios are expected to experience notably lower fluctuation (of value) than stock markets;

High risk portfolios are expected to experience similar fluctuation (of value) to stock markets;

Very high risk portfolios are expected to experience price fluctuation above stock markets.

There is no minimum investment period and you can exit at any time for free. However, it’s important to remember that our managed portfolios are designed for long-term investing and only recommend them if you intend to invest for several years.

You can withdraw all your money from a managed portfolio anytime, for free, by exiting the portfolio. You can also make partial withdrawals, but only for as long as you keep your account value above the minimum investment amount.
Once you open a Saxo account and take the suitability test, you’ll be able to see detailed information about a portfolio’s composition, past performance, investment methodology and more.

Investing in Managed Portfolios doesn’t have to be exclusive. You can simultaneously invest/trade in any instrument available on our platforms when investing in Managed Portfolios.
