Defined contribution (DC) pension savings are increasingly becoming the main source of income for this generation of retirees. Traditional DC glidepaths typically rely on balancing returns from equities and bonds, which don’t always diversify one another. We believe there is a need for liquid and diversifying returns throughout the DC glidepath, to reduce drawdowns and improve member outcomes.

Man Group’s DC proposition focuses on delivering innovative differentiated investing styles across asset classes to achieve these goals.
