A range of investment portfolios

We’ve carefully selected a range of investment portfolios to meet a wide range of needs. So whether you’re looking for a high growth or conservative investment portfolio, or an investment that promotes a better world, such as our eco-conscious Climate Portfolio, we have it covered. If you’d like an investment portfolio that changes its approach as you age, our Target Date Portfolio will focus on growing your retirement savings while you’re younger and reducing your risk when you are older.

You can switch between the investment portfolios at any time. 

World leading investments

Each of our portfolios is carefully made up of world leading Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) to achieve the appropriate balance of investments. Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are a modern and transparent way to save for the future, giving you access to outstanding investment opportunities.

Asset allocation disclaimer: Please note the asset allocations above are for illustrative purposes. Your actual asset allocation may differ owing to market conditions and the timing of portfolio rebalancing. In addition, a small amount of your portfolio may be held in cash for liquidity purposes or as part of our strategic asset allocation approach (in most circumstances this will be less than 5% of the total portfolio value).
