The one thing you can control is costs. You could look at areas of undervalue via AJ Bell 'Global Growth' (think that's what it's called) with their 'active passive' or simply add to what you've got.
Of all the posters on here, you're in the top tier when it comes to research. So my suggestion is probably along the lines of 'if it isn't broke, don't fix it' and 'what you're looking for may not exist'. You've also won the game at such a relatively young age (meant respectfully). Don't take more risk than you need.
Thanks Rob.
My 2 multi assets in my ISA's are AJ Bell Adventurous and BNY Mellon Global Balanced. They've served me very well during my time holding them and simply increasing the weighting of these with new money in seems very logical.
The SIPP is the slightly bigger conundrum because the timescale means I can be balls out risk, but the AUM means I don't need to be (as you've alluded to). So I've perhaps been looking for this holy grail of equity returns without "buying more global tracker risk" and as you've suggested maybe that doesn't exist.
Adding the growth version of the AJB one to my SIPP is something I am pondering, or using the equivalent product from L&G or Abrdn.
As it happens my AUM is going down not up last few days (like most people), so it's a less pressing concern haha!
