* The two investment risk measurements we list are different ways of showing the volatility of an asset or index, or how much it goes up and down over five years. Standard Deviation shows the range of returns around the arithmetic mean. The bigger the number the wider the ‘dispersion’ of returns and the greater the volatility. Maximum Drawdown simply measures the biggest fall from peak to trough in the previous five years. Data sourced from Lipper, a Thomson Reuters company. Figures are reported in sterling and show the return a UK investor would receive before costs. All the stock market indices show a total return (TR, capital + income reinvested) except for the Shanghai Composite which shows a capital return only. The figures for the Mixed Asset funds are percentage changes calculated gross on a bid-bid basis with income reinvested at the ex-dividend date.
