2. Investment Choice – Group PRSA
We offer your employees a wide range of funds to choose from, provided by two of the leading fund managers in Ireland. We recognise that everyone is different, which is why our PRSA investment funds include options to suit individuals at different stages in their lives, with different needs and retirement goals.
While it is important to offer employees a choice of funds, some employees may not wish to make an investment decision. To cater for this a default investment strategy is available. The default investment strategy for New Ireland’s Standard PRSA is the lifestyle pension fund called the IRIS Retirement Fund.
