LV= is adding eight Environmental Social Governance (ESG) funds to the range of funds available through the LV= Flexible Transitions Account pension plan.
ESG funds take account of environmental, social and governance factors before investing in a wide mix of asset classes.
The funds will be available from 18 November 2019 and have been picked by the LV= Investments team to provide more choice and diversification as people become increasingly mindful about where their money is invested.
Advisers and their clients will be able to choose from a mix of passive and multi-asset funds across different risk ratings. Managed by Liontrust, L&G and M&G, the ESG funds will suit a range of risk profiles from Defensive Managed, Managed and Global Growth funds – which are risk-rated as 3, 6 and 9 respectively by Defaqto.
The list of ESG Funds is below:
