Fund Aims

Objective: The investment strategy of the fund is to purchase units in the M&G PP Global Equity Fund - the underlying fund.

Underlying Fund Objective: The fund provides an all-equity approach to investment, holding a 55% UK equity and 45% mix of overseas company shares. For the overseas shares, the fund is actively managed against an internal composite benchmark asset allocation set by the M&G Treasury & Investment Office. It is a “fund of funds” where both active stock selection, within the underlying sector funds, and asset allocation decisions are used to add value. Derivative instruments may be used for efficient portfolio management.

Performance Objective: To outperform the internal composite benchmark by 1.0% a year (before charges) on a rolling three year basis.

Commentary

Performance as at Q3 2025 - Financial markets generally fared well in the third quarter, with markets continuing to recover following the tariff-related sell-offearlier in the year. Investors’ concern about the potential for trade disruption eased and sentiment improved, thanks to a month’s delay in implementing tariffs, as well as trade deals between the US and the EU and with Japan. Global stockmarkets were also supported by strong corporate earnings and the expectation of US interest rate cuts. These duly transpired in September when the Federal Reserve reduced interest rates by 25 basis points.

The fund gained in the quarter but lagged the benchmark and the comparator. In absolute terms, Pacific and emerging stockmarkets, notably China, were the strongest performers, while Japan and the US made solid gains and the UK and Europe made more modest advances. Most major stockmarkets rose in the quarter but India declined, all in sterling terms. Pacific and some emerging markets made double-digit gains, with China producing robust returns on the back of strong performance from AI-related and technology stocks. Investor sentiment was also supported by hopes of further stimulus measures to boost the Chinese economy. Other technology heavy markets such as Taiwan and Korea also fared well. In contrast, India and Indonesia lagged behind, with India’s economy expected to be hurt by US President Trump’s decision to impose high tariffs on Indian goods, while Indonesia struggled due to concerns about the independence of the central bank. Japan fared well on the back of its tariff agreement with the US, which has increased clarity. US stocks were driven largely by AI and technology stocks, as well as the interest rate cut and greater clarity regarding trade tariffs. The UK stockmarket’s performance was led by larger companies, while more domestically focused mid and small-sized companies were held back by worries about persistent inflation, slowing economic growth and the UK’s fiscal position. In Europe, markets were supported by a trade deal between the European Union and the US. However, some concerns about fiscal positions and political issues weighed on sentiment. Stock picking in the UK held back performance. Selection in the US, Europe and China cost some performance too, although more modestly, while stock picks in emerging markets were broadly neutral. Stock picking in Pacific markets supported performance, as did selection in Japan and India, although to a lesser extent.

The fund maintains an above-index allocation to equities, comprising a diversified basket of US, Asia, Europe and global emerging markets. Markets remain reactive to a mix of economic and geopolitical signals, with recent moves reflecting uncertainty around inflation, growth and policy direction.

While corporate earnings have held up in many regions, investor sentiment has become more cautious. As inflation trends diverge and labour markets evolve, central banks may take increasingly different paths - raising the potential for greater dispersion across asset classes and regions in the period ahead.

Important Information

Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.

Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

Source of portfolio data: Broadridge. Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in GBP with gross income reinvested. The value of your client’s investment can go down as well as up and the amount your client gets back may be less than they put in.

This factsheet is intended for the advisers of occupational pension schemes using Prudential group pension contracts and Prudential grouped personal pensions and Stakeholder pension contracts. its purpose is to provide an insight into how investment markets and funds have performed over the period and is provided for information only. You should refer to your client's scheme documentation (e.g. Fund Guide) for fund availability, investment strategy, any scheme information and charges. Every care has been taken in populating this output, however it must be appreciated that neither Broadridge, Prudential nor their sources guarantee the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of this infomation or make any warranties regarding results from its usage.

Aims and Benchmark

Aims Objective: The investment strategy of the fund is to purchase units in the M&G PP Global Equity Fund - the underlying fund. Underlying Fund Objective: The fund provides an all-equity approach to investment, holding a 55% UK equity and 45% mix of overseas company shares. For the overseas shares, the fund is actively managed against an internal composite benchmark asset allocation set by the M&G Treasury & Investment Office. It is a “fund of funds” where both active stock selection, within the underlying sector funds, and asset allocation decisions are used to add value. Derivative instruments may be used for efficient portfolio management. Performance Objective: To outperform the internal composite benchmark by 1.0% a year (before charges) on a rolling three year basis.
Benchmark Internal composite benchmark, asset allocation set by the M&G Treasury & Investment Office (T&IO).

Important Information

Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.

Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now.

Fund Specific Risks

Charges to Capital

Part, or all of the periodic annual management fee(s) and expenses may be charged to capital which could increase the potential for the capital value of your investment to be eroded. Your capital could also decrease if income withdrawals exceed the growth rate of the fund(s).

Emerging Markets

The fund invests in emerging markets. Generally less well regulated than the UK. There is an increased chance of political and economic instability with less reliable custody, dealing and settlement arrangements. The market(s) can be less liquid. If a fund investing in markets is affected by currency exchange rates, the investment could either increase or decrease. These investments therefore carry more risk.

Value of Investments

The value of investments, and any income can fall, as well as rise, so you could get back less than you invested. Neither capital nor income is guaranteed.

Investments Long Term

Investments should be regarded as long term and are not suitable for money which may be needed in the short term, you should always have a sufficient cash reserve.

Exchange Rate

This fund invests in securities outside the UK. The value of investments and any income from them may therefore decrease or increase as a result of changes in exchange rates between currencies.

Solvency of Depository

The value of a cash or currency fund may be affected if any of the institutions with which cash is deposited becomes insolvent or experiences other financial difficulties.

Returns Are Not Guaranteed

What you receive when you sell your investment is not guaranteed; it depends on how your investments perform.

Inflation

Inflation will reduce the real value of your investments in future.

Taxation and Tax Relief

Levels of taxation and tax relief are subject to change.

These risk ratings have been developed by Prudential to help provide an indication of a fund’s potential level of risk and reward based on the type of assets which may be held by the fund. Other companies may use different descriptions and as such these risk ratings should not be considered as generic across the fund management industry.

We regularly review our fund risk ratings, so they may change in the future. If, in our view, there is a material change in the fund's level of risk, for example due to a significant change to the assets held by the fund or in the way the fund is managed, we will provide information on the new risk rating. We recommend that you make sure you understand the risk rating of any fund before you invest.

  • Higher Risk
  • Medium to Higher Risk
  • Medium Risk
  • Lower to Medium Risk

Medium to Higher Risk

These funds offer a diverse geographical spread of equity investment or have multi-asset strategies with a specialist focus (e.g. ethical). The equity funds within this category will have greater overseas exposure and underlying volatility than the "medium" sector.

The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now.

The value of your client’s investment can go down as well as up and the amount your client gets back may be less than they put in.
