The funds are divided into two categories:

Diversified funds: By spreading their investments across a range of asset classes, these funds can reduce the risk of poor returns, because if one asset class such as ‘property’ performs poorly, this may be off set by a strong performance in another asset class such as ‘shares’.

Sector-specialist funds: Sector-specialist funds mainly invest in a single asset class (such as ‘shares’), with a small amount retained in cash for liquidity purposes. They are designed for investors who are seeking targeted exposure to a specific asset class.
