Seeking ETF Equivalent of VLS60 or VLS80

Can anyone suggest a ETF equivalent for the Vanguard Life Strategy 60 or 80? Would like something on Fidelity's platform (capped ETF fees). It does exist (IE00BMVB5R75) but not in Fidelity.

How about Vanguard FTSE Developed World/FTSE All-World EFT + Vanguard Global Aggregate Bond EFT bought in proportion to replicate either VLS 60 or VLS 80 or anything in between!
Cost will be lower than the VLSs as well.The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.0 -
Not sure of equivalence, but there is BlackRock ESG Multi-Asset withMAGG Growth Portfolio
MAMG Moderate Portfolio
MACG Conservative Portfolio

This is not investment advice.

IE00BMVB5R75 is part of an EUR hedged and EU biased set of LifeStrategy ETFs intended for EU investors, so probably not what a UK investor wants.Blackrock ESG Multi-Asset funds are the closest you'll get to Vanguard UK GBP Lifestrategy funds using ETFs.0

Thanks everyone, good suggestions. However on Fidelity (UK) I'm not seeing any BlackRock ETFs, nor Vanguard Global Aggregate Bond EFT.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Credit Cards, Savings & investments, and Budgeting & Bank Accounts boards.

For BlackRock ETFs look for the iShares range, there are 174 of them (though none of them are the 3 listed above). Fidelity don't seem to have VAGP either
