Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Irish Life Portfolio Pension 5.

Portfolio Pension 5 Series W is a mixed-asset fund that invests across bonds, shares, property, cash and alternatives. It is designed to hold a relatively high exposure to higher-risk assets such as shares and property, while the mix may change over time. Irish Life Investment Managers says the fund is monitored and rebalanced regularly to keep it within its target risk level.

Portfolio Pension 5 Series W includes a sustainability-focused approach as part of its strategy. It aims to invest in strategies that reduce exposure to companies with poorer sustainability characteristics and increase exposure to companies with better ones. Sustainability characteristics are also considered when selecting property and alternative funds.

Portfolio Pension 5 Series W may fully or partly hedge non-euro currency exposures back to euro. This is intended to reduce foreign currency risk, which means exchange-rate movements can affect the value of overseas investments when converted back into euros. The fund may still have some remaining currency exposure depending on how much is hedged.

Portfolio Pension 5 Series W is described as a medium to high risk fund, mainly because it has relatively high exposure to shares and property. It also uses securities lending, which can increase risk even though it may help generate extra return. Securities lending means the fund temporarily lends holdings to another party in exchange for a fee, and that creates some additional risk if the borrower does not return them as agreed.

Portfolio Pension 5 Series W is managed by Irish Life Investment Managers and uses the Active & Passive Multi Strategy framework. It is a global mixed-asset fund, so it can invest in a wide range of regions and asset types rather than focusing on one market. The manager regularly reviews the portfolio and can adjust the asset mix over time.
