Despite the world fighting the Covid-19 outbreak, SqSave's portfolios are still showing positive performance. Our investments are well-diversified across global markets; mainly allocated to US REITS, US stocks, and China A-shares.

The drop in China market is offset by the strong growth in the US market, resulting in the portfolio only gaining around 5% since May 2019, as per SqSave's 5 reference portfolios representing different risk types, i.e. conservative, balanced, growth, aggressive and very aggressive.
