Pension Portfolio - the flexible pension plan

Pension Portfolio carefully blends a personal pension, a range of investment options and an integrated drawdown facility to suit your clients' needs.

You can tailor each plan to suit your clients' retirement goals today, with the ability to adapt them as their needs change.

With Pension Portfolio, your clients will have a range of flexible options, including:

• Flexibility on how much they save and how often they make contributions, like regulars. Your client can also decide to pay in additional money or consolidate other pensions
• When the time comes, your clients can choose from a range of retirement income options to suit their needs
• Our Defaqto 5-star rated integrated drawdown facility - Income Release - lets your clients move seamlessly into drawdown from within the same plan.

Our wide range of investment options aim to meet the needs of all your clients.

The Governed Range

Our Governed Range is at the heart of our investment options. It's a suite of risk-graded multi asset portfolios and strategies that comes with a responsible investment approach and robust governance at no extra cost to your clients.

The Governed Range includes:

• Our risk-graded Governed Portfolios let you take into account how much investment risk your clients are comfortable with
• Our range of five Governed Retirement Income Portfolios (GRIPs), for clients in drawdown, factor in what risk they need to take in order to achieve their desired level of income
• Our Flexible Lifestyle Strategies are designed for clients who have a specific retirement goal in mind – like taking cash, buying an annuity or enjoying a regular income.

Align your clients' pension and ISA investments

Our Stocks and Shares ISA offers access to the same expertly managed Governed Range as our Pension Portfolio – making it easier to align your client’s pension and investment strategy across both products.

Fund range

We offer a wide range of funds, managed by Royal London Asset Management and other investment managers, with the option to select auto-rebalancing.

More about our investment options

To provide greater value for money, our annual management charge (AMC) is tiered. This means your clients' overall charge will reduce as the value of their investments grows. This is applied through a management charge discount, which will change as the value of their investments increases or decreases. If your client also has a Royal London Stocks and Shares ISA, the combined value of the pension and ISA will be used to calculate the management charge discount.
