The Retirement Bond is a single premium pension plan giving you access to a range of funds covering equities, property, fixed interest and cash, each offering a different investment strategy and risk profile.
The Retirement Bond offers you:
• the experience of investment professionals positioned to identify good investment opportunities. Using professional investment managers allows you access to stock markets without the expertise needed for trading shares directly;
• the flexibility to switch between a wide range of funds at any time during the life of your pension plan. At the commencement of your pension plan you may wish to invest in more volatile funds that offer greater potential for return. As you get closer to your retirement you may want to protect any pension plan growth and value by changing your portfolio to more secure funds in your pension plan.
Your pension plan will generally grow free of tax to ensure you gain maximum benefit from any fund growth.
