What investments can I choose in my Plum SIPP?
Updated over a week ago

The Plum app has been designed to make investing for your future as accessible as possible.

As part of the transfer-in process, you need to choose from one of three types of investment funds for your contributions to:

Target Retirement Date Fund 🏖

Description

This is a clever type of fund that automatically changes what it invests in, the closer you get to your chosen retirement age. A principle of investing is that the longer the term of your investment, the more potential for higher risk and higher rewarding investments to pay off. However, there could be lots of fluctuations in the value of your investments along the way. And the last thing you want when you’re ready to take your SIPP benefits is to find that the investments are on a down. A Target Retirement Date Fund helps to avoid this by starting off in higher risk/reward investments, but gradually switching them to lower risk/reward investments as you near your chosen retirement date.
