The Aegon Master Trust combines a diversified default strategy which invests across public and private markets, alongside a curated self‑select range of 28 funds, offering members a choice of asset classes and investment styles.

The default investment option

Aegon LifePath Flexi is the default fund for the Aegon Master Trust, offering a ready‑made investment solution. It's a target-date fund which invests across public and private markets. The fund automatically adjusts, focusing on growth early on before moving to typically lower‑risk investments as retirement approaches. It considers environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors across most asset classes.

For members who like this approach, but who plan to buy an annuity or cash in savings at retirement, two alternative Aegon LifePath funds are available. 

Options beyond the default

The Aegon Master Trust Fund Range has been carefully selected by the Aegon Master Trust Trustees with input from independent adviser, Isio, to help members build their own portfolios, while keeping choices manageable.

The focused range of 28 funds offers choice across different asset classes, world regions and investment styles and includes funds aligned with specific responsible investment themes and a Shariah-compliant option.

Independent trustee expertise and investment governance

At the heart of the Aegon Master Trust is a board of independent trustees, bringing deep expertise in pensions, regulation, responsible investment and member engagement. Acting in members’ best interests, the trustee board ensures strong governance, transparency and value by:

  • Maintaining a strong focus on costs and value

Oversight from the Trustees is complemented by Aegon’s robust fund governance framework, which provides ongoing monitoring, manager oversight and due diligence across the investment range.
