In financial services, Oakglen Wealth is focused on wealth management and investment services. Oakglen Wealth is based in Jersey and the United Kingdom, specialising in the provision of discretionary and advisory services predominantly to wealthy private clients and their families.

In private equity, Oakglen Group invests growth capital, with a current focus on financial technology and operational real estate, including via its wholly-owned Technology and Innovation Fund. The investee companies tend to have originated in the UK and have growth aspirations into Europe and particularly North America. Oakglen Group typically takes majority or significant minority shareholdings and remains closely involved in assisting and mentoring the investee founders and managers.
- The Blending Document
The blending document has been revisited following the appointment of Oakglen Wealth to manage the Libero International Portfolios and with the introduction of the Nexus Cautious Portfolio to the range.
The Oakglen investment style differs to the previous managers by holding fewer positions and taking a more dynamic approach to asset allocation, with a focus on managing downside investment risk.
The suggested Libero International Portfolio asset allocations in this document are based on the Blacktower Financial Management Group risk profiling questionnaire and have been mapped on the levels of potential drawdown.
There are some changes within the Cautious Portfolio, mapping directly to the Cautious risk profile. For Balanced, the Nexus Solutions portfolio is now topped up with a position in Nexus Dynamic. The return to a normalisation of interest rates has resulted in meaningful returns from fixed interest, so the level of potential volatility has reduced for the Nexus Solutions Portfolio. The addition of some Nexus Dynamic provides the opportunity for a more growth-orientated Balanced solution. This allows advisers to finesse the risk appetite for their clients.
The Growth risk profile is a 50/50 mix of Nexus Dynamic and Nexus Solutions and for those clients looking for all out Global Growth investment, a 100% allocation to Nexus Dynamic, which is a focused Global Equity Portfolio with capital appreciation as its investment objective.
