 After a review, we’re changing the investments used by this investment pathway

Old fund allocation

100%

Multi-Asset Fund
New Fund allocation

100%

Future World Multi-Asset Fund

Your chosen investment pathway has a fund management charge (or FMC). The fund management charge covers the cost of managing and running the fund. For example, a charge of 0.30% means that each year you’ll pay £3.00 for every £1,000 you have invested.

The fund management charge for your investment pathway is increasing. 

However, it is expected this new investment approach will produce a better outcome for members. This cannot be guaranteed.

Old Fund Management Charge

0.13%

New Fund Management Charge

0.16%

We have updated the investment pathway’s aim to correspond with the new allocations.

We're also changing the benchmark used for your investment option. A benchmark is a way of measuring how an investment option is performing. It is a point of comparison only, and it doesn’t affect your pension savings.

We're updating the investment pathway's benchmark so it better reflects the investments now held in the investment pathway.
