“Our on-going investor research programme, which provides us with insight into the needs of UK retail investors, has highlighted that attitudes are changing; with the budget increasing flexibility over savings pots, investors are looking for strategies that can provide them with the growth and income they require at retirement,” said Chris Jackson, EVP for UK retail and international product.
“It is now more important than ever for investors to have access to the products that can help them meet their savings goals and the funds in our UK OEIC range are ideally positioned to meet this need,” he added.
