Sixty Second Summary
Growth, Income and Protection
01 Nov 2021
For an LGPS Pension Committee, setting the investment strategy is likely to be the most important financial decision it will make for the Fund. When deciding on the right investment approach a range of often competing factors need to be considered such as the Fund’s current funding position, future liabilities and tolerance to risk. In this 60-second summary, we explain how our Growth, Income and Protection framework can help make this decision an easier one.
Overcoming hurdles, one at a time
The first hurdle Committees are likely to face is choice – a bewildering array of investment types and asset strategies. How do you narrow the focus? Our Growth, Income and Protection framework does just that. It asks key questions that help ascertain which investments will ensure the Fund can pay benefits and keep contributions sustainable and affordable.
