Expected returns are calculated based on long-run expectations for investment markets and fund performance, and are not a guarantee of future results. The calculation takes information on how market
returns have varied in the past and gives a range of what is assessed to be likely in the future. The ranges of expected returns have been calculated using a statistical tool of 2 ½ standard deviations of return
volatility – this means that actual returns are expected to fall outside these ranges 1 year out of every 100. While these ranges may be used as a guide, due to the uncertainty inherent in financial markets they
are also not guaranteed.
