Life and Pension funds

The life and pension fund range lets you access over 150 carefully selected funds covering all the main asset classes. The range includes our popular risk-rated, multi-asset Portfolio funds, which sit alongside a selection of single strategy funds. With that in mind, you’ll have the flexibility to create bespoke investment portfolios that meets both your risk profile and financial goals.

We put a lot of thought into which funds we want to make available. Before we add an external fund link to the range, it will go through a thorough due diligence process to make sure it’s fit for purpose and meets all of our investment, operational, governance and compliance standards.

We continuously monitor all of the funds in the range so that we know it’s still right for our investors. If the funds aren’t performing particularly well, we’ll look into it and check to see whether the funds are being managed in line with reasonable policyholder expectations.
