Which is why the JPMorgan Multi Income Fund invests dynamically across geographies and asset classes, capturing multiple income and capital growth opportunities in different market conditions to build a stronger portfolio.
TACKLING CHALLENGES WITH A DYNAMIC MULTI-ASSET APPROACH
1. OVERCAST OUTLOOK; VOLATILITY HEIGHTENED
Escalating trade tensions and other geopolitical concerns have cast a cloud over the global economic outlook, and may further weigh on financial markets. Still, investors may risk missing out on investment opportunities should they choose to stay on the sidelines in uncertain markets.
SOLUTION
Different assets perform differently under various market conditions. As market volatility persists, it is crucial that investors adopt a diversified approach, depending on their risk appetite, with exposure to different asset classes to help achieve a balanced risk and return profile.

2. A WORLD OF LOWER YIELDS
Central banks look set to embark on further monetary easing to help cushion downside risks. In July 2019, the US Federal Reserve cut rates for the first time in a decade. The European Central Bank and other central banks in Asia are also leaning towards policy easing. It has become increasingly challenging for investors to find the income they need from traditional sources.
SOLUTION
Although yields^ are on a decline, investors can still tap diverse investment opportunities by moving across regions, asset classes and the full capital structure for additional income sources.
^Yield is not guaranteed. Positive yield does not imply positive return.
