Mix of investments

Our portfolios contain a mix of investments from over 50 different countries, giving you access to a world of opportunities.

Our portfolios

Our ready-made portfolios are an accumulation fund, which means that any income will be reinvested within the fund. This gives your investment the potential to grow. Each portfolio has a risk level rated 1 to 5, where 1 is a lower level of risk and 5 is a higher level of risk. This indicates the amount of potential return on your investment and the risk of investment loss.

The make-up of the portfolios below are correct as of 30 November 2022. Read the portfolio factsheets for the current composition and the costs and charges document to find out more about the fees involved.

How to apply

Stocks & shares ISA

A stocks & shares ISA (Individual Savings Account) is an account that you can open for your investments. Opening an ISA is a tax-efficient way to build your portfolio, because you can invest up to £20,000 without paying any UK income tax or capital gains tax.

You can open a stocks & shares ISA if:

you don’t already have a stocks & shares ISA for the current tax year (you can still have a cash ISA or another type of ISA)
you’ve not exceeded your £20,000 ISA limit for the current tax year

Keep in mind, tax rules can also change and any benefits will depend on your individual circumstances.

General investment account

Or, you can choose to open a general investment account (GIA) if:

you already have another stocks & shares ISA this tax year, or
you have exceeded the overall £20,000 ISA limit

Frequently asked questions

An HSBC portfolio, also known as a fund is a ready-made mix of investments that's been carefully selected by a fund manager.

By investing in a portfolio managed by a fund manager, you'll be investing in a far broader range of assets than if you chose to invest directly in the assets yourself. This could help you to achieve greater returns and reach your financial goals.

An asset, or asset class, is a group of investments that have similar financial characteristics.

Our ready-made portfolios are made up of differing levels of these 4 types of asset class:

bonds – fixed income government bonds or corporate bonds
equities – shares in other companies
property – also known as alternatives
cash – pooled money can also be invested as a way to lower risk

By investing in one of our portfolios, you'll be combining different asset classes, which helps spread the amount of risk you take with your investment.

A team of experts at HSBC Global Asset Management will continuously track the performance of the individual assets in your portfolio and adjust the holdings accordingly.

Their goal will always be to maximise the return within the designated risk level.

Yes, you can open a stocks & shares ISA for your portfolio investments. It's a tax-efficient way to build your portfolio, as you can invest up to £20,000 per tax year without paying any income tax or capital gains tax (as of the tax year 2021/2022).

You can open a stocks & shares ISA if:

you don’t already have a stocks & shares ISA for the current tax year (you can still have a cash ISA or another type of ISA)
you’ve not exceeded your £20,000 ISA limit for the current tax year

If you already have another stocks & shares ISA this tax year, or you have exceeded the overall £20,000 ISA limit, you can apply for our general investment account instead.

Remember, the value of any tax benefits will depend on your circumstances and tax rules may change in the future.

We recommend that you aim to invest for at least 5 years, as this gives your investment more time to recover from any dips in the market.

But your money's not locked away. You can sell your investment at any time to access your money within 5 working days.

Investment advice

Our ready-made portfolios are offered without any advice. You choose the risk level that you're comfortable with, and HSBC Global Asset Management will manage your portfolio for you.

If you're unsure which level of risk is right for you, we also offer online investment advice for our ready-made portfolios. Fees and eligibility criteria apply.
