What the provider says about this fund

The Default Saver Fund is suited to investors who seek a medium level of returns on average over medium term periods (five years plus), allowing for shorter term ups and downs. We aim to achieve this by investing in a mix of income and growth assets, utilising a predominantly passive investment approach.
