Future leaders in investment management will be given a bigger voice and greater opportunities to shape the industry as the Investment Association (IA) launches its new Next Generation Investment Committee today.
Pension funds and investment managers have joined forces to launch a new steering group to examine how stewardship and a focus on long-term investment can be better integrated into the investment process to create sustainable value for savers and investors.
Responsible investment and globally diversified equity and bond funds have been the main beneficiaries in 2020 as investors sought sustainable opportunities and safe havens during a tumultuous year.
Exchange traded funds (ETFs) will be included in the Investment Association’s (IA) sectors from 19 April 2021. Their inclusion will coincide with the division of the IA Global Bonds sector, which will be split into 14 new sectors.
UK savers prioritised diversification as Global (equity) and Global Bonds became the top two best-selling IA sectors respectively in October 2020, according to latest figures published today by the Investment Association (IA).
Our key purpose is to make investment better for savers and investors, for companies and their employees, and for the economy. That way, everyone prospers.
