They're really not the same. Mixed/Multi Asset Funds should not be presented on the same page for comparison purposes with 100% equity funds.

Do the exercise with the Blackrock Global Index Tracker , the 5*5 Global Equity Fund and the International Equity Fund, on the same platform. All 100% World Equity Funds.

As a consumer, I'm not sure I'd accept that point. The reason I asked was to evaluate the trade-off between performance and diversification of risk, with the understanding that the risk profiles are different. I get some folks will only see performance and possibly draw incorrect conclusions, but I certainly learnt something (two things actually) from seeing them on the same chart.

It's a regular occurrence (still) on these pages and on other forums, where consumers convince themselves that index tracking is the bomb because they only look at funds that are mixed/multi asset in nature, for comparison purposes.

I'm just pointing the difference out for those that might interpret it as like-for-like.

No harm in doing that, every time the issue comes up, purely for clarity/accuracy.
