A strong track record

Built around making steady gains and avoiding large losses
Over 29 years, the typical Ruffer portfolio has produced an average return of 6.9% (€) a year, after all fees and charges.

During this period, we have preserved our clients’ capital through some very difficult markets – including the crashes of 2000 to 2003, 2007 to 2009 and early 2020.

Our track record has been built on the steady compounding of positive returns. And our performance has come with a low correlation to conventional investment strategies, offering clients a different pattern of returns.

That said, sometimes our performance is dull. Sometimes the markets race ahead of us.

We believe it is only by preserving capital in difficult times that we can hope to achieve good returns over the long term.

regulatory performance disclosure


Source: Ruffer, Bloomberg. Cumulative performance 30 June 1995 to 31 March 2024. All figures include reinvested income. Ruffer performance is shown after deduction of all fees and management charges. Calendar quarter data has been used up to the latest quarter end and monthly data thereafter. All mentions of Ruffer performance refer to Ruffer’s representative portfolio, which shows the performance of an unconstrained, segregated portfolio of £1 million set up in 1995, following Ruffer’s investment approach, hedged in euros. Past performance is not a guide to future performance, your investments can go down as well as up and you may not get back the full amount invested. The value of overseas investments will be influenced by the rate of exchange.
