We have outlined below a number of the questions that you may have on asset and fund allocations in a pension or investment. 

What asset classes make up my pension?

There are a range of different types of investments that would typically make up a pension. These are often referred to as "asset classes". In most pension plans your regular contributions are collectively invested in a suite of "assets" within the pension.

What are the main asset classes?

 The main asset classes are as follows:

• Cash and deposits
• Bonds which are also known as Fixed Income Securities
• Equities which are also known as shares
• Property 
• Private Equity (Shares in companies not listed on the Stock Market)
• Precious Metals (Gold and Silver)
• Commodities (Copper and Oil)
• Foreign Currencies
• Derivatives
