DC investment strategy design has evolved significantly over recent years with schemes allocating to an increasing array of investment ideas and asset classes.

Our clients have been at the forefront of these new ideas, delivering improved solutions for members and targeting better outcomes, and we can draw on this experience to improve offerings to members.

Our high quality and experienced DC team will provides unparalleled investment advice. Our experience has been developed from advising on ~£60bn of DC assets and over 6 million DC members, including several of the largest DC schemes in the UK. Our passion is improving value for members and investment is a key part of that. Our market-leading in-house DC technology, LCP Horizon, is central to what we do.

LCP Horizon empowers us – and and clients through online access – to conduct membership analysis and obtain up-to-date performance of their schemes’ investments. This enables a deeper understanding their membership and investments, and gives the convenience of immediate online access, eliminating the wait for quarterly reports.

Our dedicated DC investment team works closely with both our clients and LCP’s broader investment and manager research teams, bringing an understanding of DC client needs to inform our strategy design and research. We also collaborate with colleagues in other areas, including the energy transition and healthcare, so we can be more innovative in bringing clients the best ideas and solutions.

Our clients will testify that the combination of our experienced people and technology results in increased confidence in their investment strategy, more effective monitoring, and better outcomes for members.
