Aegon launches new investment proposition

Aegon has launched a range of multi-manager funds as part of a new investment offering to the market.

The firm, which has teamed with investment specialists OBSR and Mercer, is offering two specific fund ranges, one for individual and one for corporate customers. Aegon has also launched a guided-architecture proposition of funds which have been picked by the trio.

Aegon says the new proposition will allow advisers to build off-the-shelf investment solutions or a bespoke offering to suits different client needs.

Aegon life and pensions marketing director Andy Marchant says: “We know that these days advisers want to spend more time advising clients and less time researching funds, so we’ve created two distinct fund ranges, one for individuals and one for corporate customers, each containing highly rated, hand-picked funds.

“This is a difficult and increasingly complex market in which Aegon is committed to offering our adviser partners the ongoing help they require. We are confident that we have developed an investment proposition that meets the needs of advisers and their clients now and in a post RDR world.”

OBSR director Nigel Whittingham says: “Through our qualitative research and portfolio construction, OBSR is working closely with Aegon to deliver a wide range of needs-based investment solutions for advisers and their clients. Aegon investment proposition supports advisers in assembling modern portfolios, guiding them through a plethora of fund choice, and assisting them against a backdrop of a changing regulatory environment.”
