Name change for the Scottish Equitable Schroder UK Corporate Bond fund
From 26 October 2018, we’re changing the name of the Scottish Equitable Schroder UK Corporate Bond fund to the Scottish Equitable Schroder Sterling Corporate Bond fund. This applies across our pension and Aegon Retirement Choices (ARC) fund ranges.
In line with this, the fund’s short name, which appears on plan statements and online accounts, will also change. The changes are reflected in the table below:
| Existing fund name | New fund name effective from 26 October 2018 |
| Scottish Equitable Schroder UK Corporate Bond fund | Scottish Equitable Schroder Sterling Corporate Bond fund |
| Existing short name | New short name effective from 26 October 2018 |

| Existing ARC short name | New ARC short name effective from 26 October 2018 |
| Scot Eq Schder UK Corp Bd Pn (ARC) | SE Schrd Sterling Corp Bd Pn (ARC) |
Nothing else will change, the fund aims and objectives, fund manager, charges and Aegon risk rating remains the same.
Why we’re changing the fund name
Schroder, the underlying fund manager, has decided to change the fund name to give a more accurate representation of how the fund invests.
How this affects investors
Investors will start to notice the name change in our literature, fund factsheet and on our website from 26 October 2018. The change will be implemented gradually across our material, so you may notice both the old and new names in use for a time.
