Allspring Global Investments Launches New Global Equity Fund to Meet Client Demands

Allspring Global Investments Launches New Global Equity Fund

On April 27, 2026, Allspring Global Investments™, a leading global asset manager overseeing approximately $624 billion in assets under advisement, disclosed the launch of its new Allspring (Lux) Worldwide Fund - Global Equity Fund. This fund, which is a sub-fund of the UCITS category, introduces a systematic strategy for global equities, providing a disciplined approach aimed at generating consistent and reproducible alpha while managing risks throughout various market cycles.

“We are excited to launch the Allspring Global Equity Fund in response to client demand for a global equity solution,” stated Andy Sowerby, head of Allspring's international distribution team. The fund expands upon the existing offerings that include the Global Equity Enhanced Income Fund and the Climate Transition Global Equity Fund, both of which have already achieved notable success in their respective categories since their launches in July 2020 and July 2021.

The new fund is strategically designed for long-term capital growth. Using quantitative models validated by fundamental research, it aims to identify high-quality companies that exhibit favorable momentum characteristics. Furthermore, it seeks to achieve positive excess returns compared to the MSCI All Country World Index. The portfolio, characterized by its diversified structure, is built through a disciplined process merging active stock selection with comprehensive risk management.

“Our Global Equity Fund is intended as a true core allocation for global equity portfolios,” explained John Campbell, CFA, the senior fund manager of the Global Equity Fund and leader of the Allspring Systematic Core Equity team. “By targeting bottom-up alpha and actively managing macro and fundamental risks, this strategy aims to provide a smoother return profile across varying market conditions.”

Managed by Allspring's Systematic Core Equity team, responsible for approximately $10.8 billion in assets and backed by decades of experience in enhanced index and focused equity solutions, this fund represents a significant advancement in the firm's equity offerings.

Initially available to investors in several European countries such as Belgium, Denmark, Germany, and the United Kingdom, among others, the fund will also become accessible in Switzerland and selected Asian markets in the coming months. This move indicates Allspring’s commitment to delivering innovative investment solutions tailored to clients' evolving needs.

Overall, this launch reflects a broader industry trend as asset managers strive to offer solutions that not only promise returns but also address risk in increasingly intricate market landscapes. At Allspring, the objective remains to inspire a new era of investing that balances financial returns with positive outcomes, making it clear that they are dedicated to a thoughtful and purposeful investment strategy.

With a dedicated team of over 365 investment professionals, Allspring's mission goes beyond just managing assets; they aim to inspire confidence and help clients navigate the complexities of the investment world. As their offerings continue to evolve, Allspring stands poised to set new standards in global equity investment practices.
