Why we believe in it
If you are invested in one of our lifestyle investment strategies, we will invest your pension savings mainly in global stock markets (equities) until you are around 16 years from your target retirement age. This is because, over the long term, equities have the potential to deliver strong growth for your savings.
We actively choose which companies to invest in. This approach is different from simply replicating a market index (known as passive investing). Instead, we look for companies that, in our view, represent good value, show signs of improving performance, or are high-quality, profitable businesses. At the same time, we shy away from those that seem overpriced or too risky. This helps to protect your pension savings from parts of the market that we believe may not perform well in the future.
We use a data-driven and systematic process to build a mix of investments across different global markets. This helps manage risks and aims to give you steadier and better results over time. In short, we focus on carefully selecting investments and keeping costs low, all with the goal of helping your pension grow in a balanced and resilient way.
