    Reviving an old thread here, apologies! 

    My employer also uses Aegon/Retiready and have enrolled me on the default Aegon pension fund, which I want to switch to a particular Vanguard index fund.

    Within the 'fund research' section of the website, plenty of Vanguard funds are available (including the one I want) but when I proceed through the 'sell your funds' option, none of them seem to be there.

    Does anyone have any ideas before I contact Aegon next week? 

    Thanks in advance. 
    The workplace pensions from Aegon typically offer much more limited fund choices. My workplace pension doesn't offer any Vanguard funds I believe.

    As said probably your pension has a limited choice . You can look to see if they off  another index tracker fund , most of them are very similar and nothing special about the Vanguard ones.
