New UK rules will help you to compare some types of responsible investments 

The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) released its final Policy Statement on Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR) and investment labels (PS23/16) in 2023.   

The aim of SDR is to introduce a set of sustainability-related product labels, product- and entity-level disclosures, an anti-greenwashing rule and additional rules regarding sustainable investing in the UK. 

These are designed to inform and protect consumers, enhance competition, and improve trust in the market for sustainable investment products.  

The rules only apply to certain types of investments.  

They do apply to many funds managed by external investment managers based in the UK. But they don’t apply to our internal unit-linked funds, lifestyle profiles or funds based outside the UK. 

If you would like to find out if a particular fund manager has produced disclosures with sustainability-related information, please visit their website for more information. 

Money invested is at risk. Tax may change in the future.
