Actively managed funds.

Actively managed funds are a good way to invest in a particular sector or region. Investments are chosen by professional fund managers who constantly monitor companies, economic conditions and markets to meet the fund’s objectives. Why invest with us?

  • Legal & General invests in around 4% of the total value of companies listed in the FTSE All-Share Index on behalf of our customers (June 2011). This means we can get significant access to boardrooms across the country.
  • No initial charge or withdrawal fees.
  • You can invest tax-efficiently in our actively managed funds through a stocks and shares ISA.

The value of your investment and any income from it may fall as well as rise and you might not get back your original investment. Recommended investment period: medium to long term, ideally five years or more. Minimum investment: £500 lump sum or £50 monthly

Risk factors

For ISAs and unit trusts

All investments carry an element of risk. Please bear in mind:

  • The value of your investment and any income from it may fall as well as rise and you might not get back your original investment.
  • If you choose an investment fund which invests overseas, changes in exchange rates between currencies may cause the value of your investment and the level of income to fall as well as rise’.
  • More details can be found in the Key Information for ISAs and Unit Trusts including Simplified Prospectus document. Before you decide to invest, you must read this document.

For ISAs only

  • The tax efficiency of ISAs is based on current rules. The current tax situation may not be maintained and the benefit of the tax treatment depends on individual circumstances.
