June Is A Poor Month For Sterling-Based Private Client Portfolios - ARC Data
Private client portfolios in sterling lost ground in June compared with the previous month as fears about government sovereign debt continued to hurt markets, although investors have still gained slightly since the start of January, according to new figures from Asset Risk Consultants.
The four categories, starting from low-risk through to high-risk, are the ARC Sterling Cautious PCI (-0.6 per cent in June); ARC Sterling Balanced Asset PCI (-1.7 per cent); ARC Sterling Steady Growth PCI (-2.6 per cent), and ARC Sterling Equity Risk PCI (-3.5 per cent).
For the year so far, the four categories are 1.2 per cent, -0.3 per cent, -1.5 per cent and -3.1 per cent respectively, ARC said.
Finalised figures will be published in six to eight weeks when all the data has been collected, ARC said.
The figures cover the period to 30 June.
In 2009, the highest return was achieved by the riskiest of the segments, the ARC Sterling Equity Risk PCI, at 21.03 per cent.
