Diversification of Returns Across the Living Sector in the UK

Commissioned through the IPF Research Programme, this report explores diversification of investment returns across the UK living sector. It considers how returns are generated across different parts of the sector and what this means for investment risk, performance and portfolio construction.

Covering nine living subsectors, the research provides a broad assessment of the similarities and differences between different investment models. It also considers the evidence currently available and how our understanding of the sector can continue to develop as the UK Living market matures.
