Police Mutual MultiManager Funds

Product Information

There are lots of options for saving. Traditional bank and building society accounts are ideal for your immediate needs over the short to medium term, offering a wide range of interest rates and benefits.

When your short and medium term needs are met, you may want to consider investing over the longer term for potentially higher returns. The Police Mutual MultiManager Funds may be right for you. You can even use your annual stocks and shares ISA allowance to invest in these funds – giving you a tax-efficient investment for your future.

Your choice of funds

There are five Police Mutual MultiManager Funds which provide you with the opportunity to invest in a way that suits your circumstances. Each fund has different aims and different levels of associated risk.

How the funds are managed

Police Mutual have appointed Investment Solutions as multimanager to manage the funds. Investment Solutions Fund Managers Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.

The Police Mutual investment team and our MultiManager follow a disciplined approach to investing your money. Each fund invests in a number of underlying investments and funds, selected with the aim of achieving the best results within the stated objectives of the fund.

Choosing the right MultiManager Fund

What is a MultiManager Fund?

A MultiManager Fund gives you access to some of the leading investment professionals and their funds. Each fund is actively managed by the 'MultiManager'. They aim to make sure that your money is invested in the right places, at the right times, to achieve the best results.

Based on rigorous criteria they select those investments that are, in their view, amongst the best in their particular field. This approach aims to help you benefit from some of the best investment opportunities. It also means that your money is spread over a mix of individual fund managers helping to minimise the exposure to risk and maximise the potential for growth.

Investing for income

The PMIS MultiManager Income Fund could appeal to you if you want the prospect of a regular income with the potential for some capital growth. We aim to pay you a quarterly income from this fund, investment performance allowing.

Summary of benefits 

  • Aims to provide a regular income and some capital growth over the long term
  • Get tax-efficient growth within an ISA
  • Benefit from the knowledge and expertise of our investment management team
  • No fixed period of investment - although five years or more is a good guide
  • Invest from £3,000
  • Reduced risk through a spread of investments when compared to investing directly in stocks and shares

In common with all such investments, the value of your capital and income can fluctuate and you may get back less than you invested. If insufficient income is achieved from the underlying investments, we may not make a quarterly income payment.

Investing for growth

There are four Police Mutual MultiManager Funds available for you if your objective is to invest for growth and you’re prepared to accept a certain level of risk to achieve potentially higher returns. The funds invest differently to suit the fund objectives, and have different levels of risk associated with them.

Summary of benefits

  • Aim to provide capital growth over the long term
  • Get tax-efficient growth within an ISA
  • Benefit from the knowledge and expertise of our investment management team
  • No fixed period of investment - although five years or more is a good guide
  • Invest from £1,000 or you can make regular payments from £50 per month
  • Reduced risk through a spread of investments when compared to investing directly in stocks and shares

Generally, the potential for higher returns increases when more of the investment is linked to shares. However, you should bear in mind that this will also increase the level of associated risk. As with any stock market investment, the value of your investment can go down as well as up, and you could get back less than you invested.

ISAs

If you are a UK resident, you can invest tax-efficiently in any of the funds through a Stocks and Shares Individual Savings Account (ISA).

Benefits of an ISA

  • They’re easy to open
  • We handle all the tax matters relating to your money while it’s invested
  • You can invest in any of the MultiManager Funds
  • There is no fixed investment period - although five years or more is a good guide

Your ISA allowance is £7,200 each tax year.

You can use your allowance to invest in one or both of the two ISA components:

– Cash ISA (maximum investment is £3,600 each tax year)

– Stocks and Shares ISA

You can only have one Cash ISA and one Stocks and Shares ISA each tax year

The Police Mutual MultiManager Funds are available as a Stocks and Shares ISA. Everyone can invest £3,600 each tax year. The maximum you can invest is the difference between £7,200 and the amount (if any) you have invested in a Cash ISA in the same tax year.

You should bear in mind that tax advantages and investment limits for ISAs may change in the future.
