UK Pension Fund Industry Overview
Wealthify, Penfold, AJBell, Bestinvest, Pension, Interactive Investors, Hargreaves Lansdown, Money Farm, Net Wealth, and Profile Pension are private pension fund providers in the United Kingdom. Pension funds, compared to other institutional investors, which typically move rapidly in and out of companies' stocks depending on earnings and other short-term factors, have a tendency to stay committed to a firm for the long term and provide the type of finance required to support innovative projects. By concentrating ownership, pension funds represent an effective instrument to stem managers' propensity to support inefficient and short-sighted strategies. With this trend, companies are expanding their businesses and focusing on their pension fund assets, creating a market for the pension fund.
