Investment strategy statement
For many years LGPS funds have had to maintain a statement of investment principles. This document lays out the things considered by the fund when making investment decisions. It also includes the types of investments that could be held, how the various risks are taken into account and sets out the objectives.
The Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) Investment Regulations, which became effective on 1 November 2016, introduced a requirement for administering authorities to formulate, publish and maintain an investment strategy statement.
