Endowment dilemma

Posts: 6 Forumite
My endowment has run for 22.5yrs and has an approx 35% shortfall. It is with AXA in a managed fund. I can take £25k now and try and make the money work harder over the next 2.5 yrs? I can't afford to make the shortfall up by extra payments or anything else so I am trying to look ahead. What would you do? Thank you

or you can switch funds if you think the managed fund doesnt offer the required potential.What would you do?
do a cost/benefit analysis to compare all the options and make a decision based on those facts and some opinion.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).
