Our investment pathways

While investment pathways were introduced by the Financial Conduct Authority to help non-advised customers manage investments, our pathway solutions are also available to your clients and offer ready made strategies for clients taking flexible income.

Each pathway is carefully designed to align to how your clients might want to use their pension pot in the next five years and offer different levels of risk to help you choose the right option for a range of clients’ needs.
