What is an All Growth investment option?
Investment options with a 96–100% allocation to growth assets are termed All Growth by Chant West, a research company that has been analysing super fund performance for more than 20 years.
All Growth investment options may appeal to people who want to substantially grow their super over the long term but are comfortable with the risk of major fluctuations and a negative return every so often. They are generally most appropriate for people who have at least seven years or more to invest and can use the power of time to ride out any volatility.
Good to know: Investments such as shares, property, infrastructure and private equity are referred to as growth assets for their ability to produce strong returns over the long term, but they are more likely to experience volatility (and even negative returns) in shorter timeframes.
Conversely, assets like cash and fixed interest are referred to as defensive assets for their ability to defend against volatility, but generally cannot produce high returns over long periods of time.
