Tactical asset allocation updates for January 2021

In 2020 the Tactical Asset Allocation (TAA) portfolio made 12.4 per cent before allowing for charges.

The tactical call we are making is that risk will be rewarded but, as the portfolio has 62.5 per cent exposure to shares, we have to be prepared to stomach large drops in portfolio value if the calls we've made this year turn out wrong.
