Our view on this Fund

This fund does not feature on the Wealth Shortlist of funds our analysts believe have the potential to outperform their peers over the long term. This is not a recommendation to sell; however, if you are thinking of adding to your investments, we believe the Wealth Shortlist is a good place to start. View funds on the Wealth Shortlist »

This fund tracks the performance of 100 large global companies, including household names like Apple and Microsoft. It’s a useful way to invest in some of the largest global companies at a low-cost and is managed by a team that we rate highly. It could help diversify a portfolio focused on smaller companies or other investments such as bonds.

The fund doesn’t feature on our Wealth Shortlist as we have funds on the list that track the broader global stock market and provide more diversification to a portfolio.

Our view on the sector

It's natural for UK investors to focus on funds investing in their home market. But as the world has become more connected, so has the investment landscape. There are lots of funds investing across the globe, and these can be a great way to diversify an investment portfolio. Funds in the global sector can invest anywhere in the world. But they go about this in different ways. They vary in how much they can invest in certain types of companies, sectors, countries, or regions. Some focus on developed markets or large multinational corporations, while others invest more in higher-risk emerging markets or smaller companies. Some target companies with higher-growth expectations and others search for unloved companies with the potential to recover.

Performance Analysis

The fund has done a good job of tracking the S&P Global 100 Index over the long term. As is typical of tracker funds, it’s lagged the benchmark because of the costs involved in running the fund. However, the techniques used by the managers have helped to keep performance close to the index. Given Legal & General’s size, experience and expertise running index tracker funds, we expect the fund to continue to track the index closely in the future, though there are no guarantees.

Investment Philosophy

Tracker funds are one of the simplest ways to invest. They aim to match the performance of an index, rather than beat it. They usually do this by investing in all the companies in the index. This means they don't need analysts to research individual companies, which keeps costs to a minimum. If the fund's costs are low, it's likely to track the index more closely.

Process and Portfolio Construction

The fund aims to invest in every company in the index and in the same proportion. This is known as full replication and should help it track the benchmark closely. Like most global funds, a large amount is invested in the US and in the technology and communication services sectors. It also invests in some emerging markets, which are higher risk than their more developed counterparts. This fund invests in fewer companies than other global index tracker funds and the top 10 companies have a big impact on overall performance.

The team try to reduce costs as much as possible. The fund participates in securities lending whereby some of its investments are lent to other providers in exchange for a fee. This helps to offset some of the costs involved in running the fund but adds risk.
