This fund was previously known as Zurich Aberdeen UK Long Dated Sterling Bond.
Fund features
This fund invests in assets which tend to produce more stable returns. Over the longer term
these assets should give lower but steady growth, with some fluctuation in value.
Unless held as part of a personalised portfolio invested to achieve an overall balance of risk
and return, this fund is more suited for shorter-term investment. Investing solely in this fund
for the longer-term may result in a lower return than a bank or building society savings
account.
The investments are made through a reinsurance arrangement.

Things you need to know
We've based this information on our current
understanding of law and practice. We make every
effort to ensure that this information is helpful,
accurate and correct but it may change or may not
apply to your personal circumstances. Before
taking any action you should always check with an
appropriate adviser, as we cannot accept
responsibility for any action taken on the basis of
this information alone.
All funds carry some risk and you should consider
these before making any investment decision.
Investment returns are not guaranteed and the
value can fluctuate. The main factors which may
increase the risk of this fund include:
- the split between government and corporate
bonds,
- the extent to which the fund invests in high yield
assets,
- the amount held in overseas assets.
The investments are made through a reinsurance
arrangement so if the reinsurer were to fail you
may lose some or all of your money and this will
not be covered by the Financial Services
Compensation Scheme.
