Intermediaries are now able to invest in any one, or a combination, of 16 individual GlobalAccess funds.
The full range is UK Alpha, UK Opportunities, US Small & Mid Cap, US Value, Europe ex-UK Alpha, Japan, Pacific Rim ex-Japan, Emerging Markets Equity, Emerging Markets Debt, Global Short Duration Bond, Global High Grade Bond, Global Inflation Linked Bond, Global Corporate Bond, Global High Yield Bond, Global Property Securities, and Global Equity Income.
Alternatively, intermediaries can also access a number of these funds through one of five Barclays discretionary management portfolios.
Bryan Parkinson, director of intermediary sales at Barclays, confirmed the company’s development plans, saying: “The GlobalAccess funds are currently available through AXA Wealth’s Elevate platform and Ascentric, and our aim is to be on all the main platforms by the end of the year.”
