Investment choices
Your investment options
Where your money is invested is up to you. There are choices to suit your level of experience with investing and how involved you want to be with managing your investments.
Option 1: Choose a low-involvement option
A low-involvement option is a lifestyle profile, which means that as you get closer to retirement it automatically prepares your pension savings for retirement.
Option 2: Choose your own investment options
If the low-involvement option isn’t for you, you’d like to choose a different lifestyle profile, or you want even more choice about where your money is invested, you can choose your own funds. There are choices to suit your level of experience and how involved you want to be.
