Standard Life stakeholder which funds?

I am with standard Life and have a stakeholder pension, currently invest in the Property (50%), with profits(10), UK equity (20) and International funds (20%).

Thinking about having a shift about with the future contributions as to which percentage I invest in each month. Also is there anyother funds with the SL stakeholder pensin that I should be investing in each month.

I dont invest much in the with profits fund, only keep that going incase of flotation in the next few years.

    Hi cheggers

    I'm sure you'll be delighted to hear that it's been announced today that flotation will go ahead, assuming everyone votes for it.Likely date is from next June.

    So don't move that money out of the WP fund yet. :D
    Trying to keep it simple...;)

    Standard Life have a range of investment funds and you should pick a range of sectors and average out the overall risk to suit your personal risk profile (and no-one elses).
