Winterthur add nine new BGI funds to its Tailored Selection

Winterthur has expanded its Tailored Selection fund range with nine BGI pension funds to provide further choice for advisers and their high net worth (HNW) clients.

The latest funds extend the range of BGI passive funds to 14 and complement the existing range of investment funds available through Winterthur's Tailored Selection pension fund range.

The choice of passive funds has been increased to meet the growing needs of price-sensitive investors in the HNW market and advisers who appreciate the significance of the client's overall asset allocation and the value of the investment selection process.

Bernard Henshall, head of investment distribution, Winterthur Life commented: "We are always reviewing the quality of returns and the diversity of funds available on the Tailored Selection to help advisers make the best decisions based on the client's attitude to investment risk. The new BGI funds have been introduced to meet the needs of the more risk adverse investor."
