The Winterthur Life Trustee Investment Plan enables SIPP holders and occupational pension scheme trustees to invest in any of our thirty one Multi Manager funds.
The TIP of choice from the SIPP pioneers
And ‘Choice’ is the word. There doesn’t seem to be much point in
offering your clients a TIP which has a very limited range of funds.
After all, one of the main reasons why SIPPs are so popular with
your clients is the scope of investment opportunities that SIPPs
present. So what you’ll like about the Winterthur TIP is, among
other things, the choice of funds on offer – thirty one in total
and each a Multimanager fund.
Furthermore, your clients will have access to funds that are not widely available in other TIPs or as alternative products.
The TIP that works with you to get the balance right
Each of the external funds selected for inclusion in our TIP fulfils
a pre-determined and specific role. Our grading and sifting procedures
enable you to choose funds where the asset allocations and investment
strategy align closely with each client’s views on risk and return.
Once selected, funds are monitored continuously, not only for reasons
of performance, but also to ensure that each fund remains faithful
to its investment style and mandate. In other words, we also
play a part in governance issues which leaves you more time to
look at the ‘bigger picture’ on behalf of your clients.
The Fund choices
The Elite Fund of Funds range
Nine funds to choose from, each a fund of funds and each seeking
to capitalise on the stock-picking skills of some of the UK’s most
successful investment managers. Your clients can invest in equities,
bonds and cash – or a mix of all three - and in the UK, European,
North American and Global sectors.
The Tailored Selection
Your clients have a choice of 22 fund of funds, which between them
cover all the world’s leading markets. In total, the Tailored Selection
comprises more than 90 high quality individual funds sourced from
thirty successful investment institutions. Funds are initially selected
using research contributed by independent experts Forsyth Partners
and our own investment panel’s views. Once chosen, each fund is
monitored continuously for performance.
