*Performance is shown after all fees and deductions including estimated performance fees and is based on the performance of the first client discretionary portfolio from inception on 8th June 2009 to 30th June 2010 (inclusive).

All SCM Private clients follow the same model portfolios. Individual client portfolios may differ principally as a result of the timing of cash flows in or out of each portfolio. The asset allocation of the SCM Private Absolute Return (£) and Long Term (£) discretionary portfolios has been within the relevant IMA sector guideline parameters. Discretionary portfolios are not subject to the same regulatory constraints as UCITS and other regulated funds. Performance can be affected by currency fluctuations. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance and values of investments can go down as well as up.

The SCMP Long Term (£) Benchmark consists of 42% UK Equities, 28% Overseas Equities, 15% UK Gilts, 7.5% Index-Linked, and 7.5% cash.

The SCMP Absolute Return (£) Benchmark is cash (the return of LIBOR 1 month £ cash).
