New Objective:
The Fund aims to provide investors with capital growth over the long term (at least 10 years). Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the Fund will invest directly or indirectly in listed equity securities of companies with a wide range of market capitalisation anywhere in the world (including emerging markets) engaged in the oil and gas sector, energy generation and/or transmission. Accordingly, the Investment Adviser will seek investment in companies involved in any of the following: the production, exploration or discovery, or distribution of energy derived from fossil fuels and the research and development or production of alternative energy sources, as well as those companies that provide services and products for all the foregoing.
The Fund is actively managed by the Investment Adviser. The Fund will normally typically hold 25 – 75 stocks. Where the Fund invests in collective investment schemes, this may include those managed by the Manager and its associates. The Fund may also use derivatives to reduce risk or cost or to generate additional capital or income at proportionate risk (known as “Efficient Portfolio Management”). It is intended that the use of derivatives will be limited. This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.
New Fund Objective:
The Fund will invest at least 80% in equities (and their related securities) of companies domiciled, incorporated or having significant business in continental Europe and those which are listed in the region and aims to hold a concentrated portfolio of 35-55 securities.
The Fund is actively managed and will invest in a concentrated portfolio of companies the Investment Manager considers will outperform over the period. The Investment Manager identifies suitable opportunities for the Fund utilising in-house research and investment capabilities. The Investment Manager will, when selecting investments for the Fund and for the purposes of monitoring risk, consider the MSCI Europe ex UK Index. However, the Investment Manager has a wide degree of freedom relative to the index and may take larger, or smaller, positions in companies, and/or may invest outside the index, to take advantage of investment opportunities. This means the Fund’s investments and therefore performance may vary significantly from the index. The Fund may also invest into other transferable securities, collective investment schemes, money market instruments, cash and deposits and is also able to use derivatives for efficient portfolio management.
This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.

Following a recent in-depth review we’ve decided to change the range of funds that are available.

New Fund Name: OMR IFSL Marlborough 6 Portfolio
New Investment Objective:
The aim of the Fund is to increase the value of an investment over a minimum of 5 years. The Fund will do this through a combination of capital growth, which is profit on investments held, and income, which is money paid out of investments, such as interest from bonds and dividends from shares. This will be achieved whilst aiming to maintain a risk rating classification of ‘6’. The risk classification is a range the Investment Manager maintains from 1 which is classified as the lowest risk to 10 which is classified as the highest risk. The Fund is managed to operate within the limits of the risk rating, which may limit the potential for capital growth and income. The Fund is actively managed which means the Investment Manager decides which investments to buy or sell, and when. The Fund will invest at least 70% in collective investment schemes, investment trusts and exchange traded products, i.e. ETFs/ETCs (collectively “Investment Funds”), with no minimum or maximum exposure to any geographic region. This could include other Investment Funds managed by the Authorised Fund Manager or the Investment Manager. Through these Investment Funds, the Fund will be exposed to:
• a higher percentage of higher-risk asset types, normally between 55-85%, such as shares in companies.
• a lower percentage of lower and medium-risk asset types, normally between 0- 45%. These will typically be bonds (which are loans issued by companies and governments), cash, and money market instruments (which are short-term loans).
• alternative asset types such as property, infrastructure, commodities (e.g. gold) and absolute return funds.
The Fund may also invest in these asset types directly (excluding property and commodities) up to a maximum of 30%. The Fund may hold up to 20% in cash to enable the ready settlement of liabilities, for the efficient management of the portfolio and in pursuit of the Fund’s investment objective.

New fund objective:
The aim of the Fund is to provide a return on your investment (generated through an increase in the value of the assets held by the Fund) by tracking closely the performance of the FTSE Emerging Index (the “Benchmark Index”). Although the Fund aims to achieve its investment objective, there is no guarantee that this will be achieved. The Fund’s capital is at risk meaning that the Fund could suffer a decrease in value and the value of your investment would decrease as a result.
In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund will invest directly into the equities (i.e. shares) of companies in the Benchmark Index and at times invest indirectly via other equity related investments (i.e. other investments whose value is related to equities) giving exposure to such companies.
This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.

L&G will make some changes to the Legal & General UK Property Feeder Fund which are consequential changes in light of changes to the L&G UK Property fund, the ‘Master’ fund of the fund. These changes will be effective from 12 April 2024 and have been approved during an Extraordinary Meeting on 10 April 2024.
L&G will amend the investment policy of the Master Fund to enable it to invest a higher proportion of its assets in global property-related assets, such as real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). This change will allow the Master Fund to amend its current portfolio composition to reduce its direct exposure to UK real estate and to increase its indirect exposure to global real estate through REITs.
By implementing this change to its investment policy, L&G aim to continue to deliver their property strategy to unit holders in a more liquid form and with additional benefits of diversification.
To reflect the fund’s new global perspective, its name will change from the L&G UK Property Feeder to L&G Property Feeder.
The portfolio of the fund will be realigned to the desired new asset allocation. The transition process is expected to take 18-24 months, but it may take longer due to the illiquid nature of the assets and varying market conditions.

New name: OMR BlackRock US Mid-Cap Value Fund
New objective:
The aim of the Fund is to provide a return on your investment (generated through an increase in the value of the assets held by the Fund, gross of fees) over the long term (5 or more consecutive years beginning at the point of investment) by investing in shares of medium sized companies incorporated or listed in the United States. In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund will invest at least 70% of its total assets in equities (i.e. shares) and equity-related investments (i.e. other investments whose value is related to equities) of medium sized companies incorporated or listed in the United States. Medium sized companies are those whose market capitalisation (market capitalisation is the share price of the company multiplied by the number of shares issued) is similar to that of companies in the Russell Midcap® Value Index at the time of the Fund’s investment. The Investment Manager follows a “value” philosophy in its investment approach. This means that, among other factors, underlying companies are chosen where the Investment Manager considers the shares of such companies to be trading below their intrinsic value and that the chosen companies exhibit value investment characteristics, such as overall business quality, potential for dividend growth and the potential to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns over the long term.
This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.

M&G Investments have notified us that they have suspended trading on the property funds with immediate effect whilst they complete the process of closing those funds (subject to regulatory approval).
M&G have explained that property funds have been less popular over the last few years and their property funds have experienced sustained outflows, resulting in the funds being smaller. M&G believe that these outflows will continue, and possibly accelerate in the future. As the funds reduce in size, it is necessary to sell larger properties and buy smaller ones. This incurs high transaction costs which negatively impact the performance of the fund.
M&G consider closing the funds to be the best option and expect the closure process to take 18 months. There is no guarantee that this timeframe is achievable and ReAssure will provide updates as the activity progresses.
We will provide an update to ReAssure customers invested in impacted funds explaining what this means for them and what options are available to them.

OMR LF Lancaster Global Equity Fund
On 15th August 2023, Liontrust announced a proposal to merge underlying Liontrust China Fund Fund with another one of their funds – Liontrust Emerging Markets Fund. This was voted on at Extraordinary General Meeting on 01/09/2023. We have now been advised by Liontrust, that Merger resolution has not passed during Extraordinary Meeting, therefore, the merger will not go effective on 08/09/2023 as they planned.
On 15th August 2023, Liontrust announced a proposal to merge underlying Liontrust China Fund Fund with another one of their funds – Liontrust Emerging Markets Fund. This is due to be voted on at Extraordinary General Meeting scheduled for 01/09/2023. If the Extraordinary Resolution is passed., the merging fund will be suspended from 04/09/2023 and the merger will become effective on 08/09/2023. The decision to merge the fund has been taken by Liontrust due the size of the merging fund which has reduced to a level which is uneconomical to run as standalone entity.
We don’t feel the above replacement fund would offer the same investment characteristics as investing specifically in Chinese assets. A significant proportion of the replacement fund that Liontrust chose is invested in assets listed on other emerging markets, which we feel contradicts the strategy of the closing fund.
We feel the First State Greater China Growth fund is a better choice for our customers as it retains those investment characteristics.
Therefore, if the merger resolution is passed, customers will be invested in the OMR First State Greater China Growth from 04/09/2023, however our systems may not show this change until at least a week following the conversion.
We will provide an update to customers invested shortly explaining what this means for them and what their options are.
Following full withdrawal of UK customers from OMR Carnegie Strategifond Fund we will be closing this fund with effect from 01/09/2023.
No investments in the Fund will be permitted from this date for UK customers.
Following notification from the manager of the underlying fund, the OMR QI Equity 2 will be closed to new business and switches in from 31 August 2023.
Existing investors in the Fund with regular premiums set up will be able to continue, however new investments in the Fund will no longer be permitted from this date.

New objective:
The Sub-Fund seeks to deliver positive returns on an annual basis after fees. The Sub-Fund aims to deliver returns before fees within a range of cash (SONIA (90-day compounded)) on a rolling 12-month basis and cash (SONIA (90-day compounded)) + 4% per annum on a rolling annualised five year basis. However a positive return is not guaranteed and a capital loss may occur.
The policy of the sub-Fund is to gain exposure through a dynamic allocation strategy to a range of asset classes including cash, near cash and deposits, fixed interest securities, equities, property, commodities and infrastructure. Exposure to these assets will be achieved through investment in transferable securities, derivatives, money market instruments, deposits, and collective investment schemes. Investment in property, commodities and infrastructure will be indirect. The Sub-Fund may also use derivatives to obtain long and short exposures. Subject to FCA Regulations, the relative exposure between these asset classes will be actively managed and will be varied as deemed necessary in order to achieve the investment objective, which may result in the Sub-Fund having no exposure to particular asset classes.

We wrote over a year ago to let customers know that a number of funds they held with underlying investment in Russia had been suspended. The Barings Eastern Europe Fund (which we referred to as the OMR Barings Eastern Europe in our previous letter) was one of these funds.
The Fund Manager of the underlying fund, Barings, has decided to transfer the available assets, which weren’t linked to Russia, from this fund to a new fund called the Barings Eastern Europe II Fund. This new fund will not be suspended, therefore we will be able to add units back into policies for the equivalent value in the OMR Barings Eastern Europe, after which customers will be able to transact on this new fund.
Please note that because customers will still have some money invested in the original OMR Barings Eastern Europe Fund which holds Russia linked underlying assets, the existing restrictions on what they can and can’t do will still apply to this holding.
We are aiming to have all relevant payments calculated and made to customer plans by the end of July. A further letter will be issued once the payment has been made.
The Fund Manager (Fulcrum Asset Management LLP) has advised that they have closed the underlying fund that is held by the OMR Fulcrum Risk Premia Fund on 26/06/2023. As a result, the closing OMR fund will be closed to new business immediately. We will provide an update to customers invested shortly explaining what this means for them and what their options are.

The Fund may also invest in the following assets which are not part of the Index: – cash to manage day-to-day cash flow requirements; – units or shares of collective investment schemes, including collective investment schemes managed or operated by the HSBC Group in order to manage day-to-day cash flow requirements; – equity related securities such as American Depositary Receipts and Global Depositary Receipts (which are certificates typically issued by a bank or trust company evidencing ownership of shares of a non-US issuer) in order to achieve exposure to a stock instead of using a physical security. This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.

The OMR Fidelity Emerging Europe Middle East & Africa fund invests in the Fidelity Emerging Europe Middle East & Africa, managed by Fidelity International (the Fund Manager). We previously notified investors in the OMR fund that this was suspended to purchases/new business last year as a result of the Ukraine and Russia conflict.
The Fund Manager has now advised us that they plan to re-open the non-Russia linked underlying assets of the fund fully. In order to do this, they will be setting up a new share class called the Fidelity Sustainable Emerging Markets Equity Fund, which will hold the non-Russian linked liquid assets. For investors in the OMR Fidelity Emerging Europe Middle East & Africa fund currently, this will mean that the fund you hold will change name to the OMR Fidelity Sustainable Emerging Markets Equity fund on or shortly after 29/03/2023. Additionally, the fund will be made fully open to purchases and sales at the same time. There will be no customer switch reflected on plans as the result of this change in underlying asset.
Following the conversion date policyholders will not be able to buy or sell shares in the Russian linked illiquid assets, as Fidelity International will take the necessary steps to close the underlying fund and sell these remaining assets when possible. In the current environment it is not possible to estimate how long this process might take to complete, or what the eventual value might be. Given that the Fund Manager is unable to accurately reflect a value of these assets currently, plans will not show any value held within these assets following the changes above.
A further letter to the policyholders will be issued shortly explaining what this means for them and what their options are.

New objective:
The objective of the Fund is to achieve capital growth and income delivering average annual investment returns (total returns, net of fees) of at least RPI + 1.5% over the long term (which is defined as a five-to-seven-year investment cycle).
Capital invested in the Fund is at risk.
The fund will be actively managed and in normal market conditions, at least 70% of the assets of the Fund will be invested in a mixture of shares and fixed income securities (including government and corporate bonds). The allocation to shares and fixed income securities will vary in response to market conditions. However, the allocation to shares will typically remain within in a 20%-50% range. Such exposure may be achieved directly or indirectly via collective investment schemes managed by third party managers. The Fund is not restricted to this range and although it is expected that the range represents the typical allocation, the Fund may deviate from the range during, and in anticipation of, adverse market conditions.

New name: OMR L&G Strategic Bond Fund
New name: ReAssure LG Strategic Bond Fund
We wrote several months ago to let customers know that a number of funds with underlying investment in Russia that they held had been suspended. The JPM Emerging Europe Equity Fund (which we referred to as the OMR JPM Emerging Europe Equity Fund in our previous letter) was one of these funds.
The Fund Manager of the underlying fund, JPM, has decided to transfer the available assets which weren’t linked to Russia from this fund to a new fund, called the JPM Emerging Europe Equity II Fund. This new fund will not be suspended, therefore we will be able to add units back into policies for the equivalent value in the OMR JPM Emerging Europe Equity II fund, after which customers will be able to transact on this new fund.
Please note that because customers will still have some money invested in the original JPM Emerging Europe Equity Fund, the existing restrictions on what they can and can’t do will still apply. You can read more about this in our previous letter (called ‘Russian-linked fund suspensions’) or at: reassure.co.uk/article/russian-funds.
We are aiming to have all relevant payments calculated and made to customer plans by the end of January. A further letter will be issued once the payment has been made.

New objective:
The fund aims to provide income and capital growth in excess of the MSCI World (Net Total Return) Index (after fees have been deducted) over a 3 to 5 year period by investing in equities of companies worldwide. The Fund is actively managed and invests at least 80% of its assets in equity and equity related securities of companies worldwide which offer sustainable dividend payments. The Fund seeks to invest in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity related securities that (1) offer capital growth and income; and (2) whose dividend yield in aggregate is greater than the average market yield. Equities with below average dividend yield may be included in the portfolio when the investment manager considers that they have the potential to pay above average income in future. This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.
The objective of this Fund is to achieve capital growth over the long term (5 years or more) and it aims to outperform the MSCI United Kingdom IMI (or any successor index). The fund will invest at least 80% in equities and equity related instruments in UK companies. From time to time, when particular opportunities are identified, or the ACD considers it appropriate, the Fund may invest in other permitted transferable securities. The fund will seek to invest in the full range of opportunities available to it, which will include shares on the AIM. The fund uses derivatives for efficient portfolio management and investment purposes. The use of derivatives is intended to be limited.

New Fund Objective: The Fund Manager seeks to grow the Fund (through increases in investment value and income) in real terms over a rolling 5-year period after deducting fees and costs. To grow in real terms, the Fund must increase in value after outperforming the rate of inflation. We measure inflation using the Consumer Prices Index (CPI). There is no guarantee that the Fund will grow in real terms over 5-year rolling periods, or over any period, and there is a risk of loss. This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.
New objective:
This fund primarily invests in a managed portfolio of North American equities, with exposure to both large and small companies. The fund aims to provide long-term capital growth. Volatility should be expected because of the type of investment.

The Fund Manager (Columbia Threadneedle) has advised that they have suspended the underlying fund that is held by the OMR CT (Threadneedle) UK Property Auth Trust. As a result, we have suspended the OMR fund until further notice.
The suspension has been put in place on the underlying holding due to the level of cash in the Fund reducing to a level where future redemption requests would not be able to be met until an orderly sale of assets has completed. There has been no indication when the suspension will be lifted.
We will shortly be issuing a letter to all investors in the fund providing further information about the action we have taken and how this suspension will impact them.

New Investment Objective: The aim of this Fund is to provide long-term capital growth over a period of 5 years or more. The Fund invests in shares of listed companies which the Manager believes will provide above-average returns. The Fund invests in companies of any size and based anywhere in the world (including emerging markets). The Manager seeks to reduce the impact on the Fund of fluctuations in value of equity markets by investing in bonds issued by developed market governments. The Fund’s typical asset mix ranges between 60 – 85% of its Net Asset Value in shares, with the remainder being mainly in bonds and cash.
The Manager invests in issuers of shares of listed companies which it believes have leading or improving environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices. These companies will either demonstrate leadership on sustainability issues (such as promoting better social outcomes, increasing the amount of renewable energy and using the planet’s resources more sustainably and increased digitalisation) through strong ESG practices (“leaders”) or will have shown a clear commitment to improve their ESG practices (“companies in transition”). The majority of the Fund’s equity investments (50% or more) will be in “leaders”. The Manager will actively engage on sustainability issues with a particular focus on “companies in transition”. When selecting shares, the Manager will also analyse a company’s financial status, quality of its management, expected profitability and prospects for growth.
Use may be made of borrowing, cash holdings, hedging and other investment techniques permitted in the applicable Financial Conduct Authority rules. The IA Mixed Investment 40-85% Shares Sector may be used by investors to compare the Fund’s performance. This fund invests in the underlying retail fund in order to track its performance, this means that fund performance may differ to the underlying fund.

Old fund: OMR Barings Japan Growth Trust – Total Expense Ratio 1.26%
New fund: OMR JPM Japan – Total Expense Ratio 1.25%
New fund name: OMR JPM Europe (Ex-UK) Sustainable Equity
New fund objective: The Fund aims to provide capital growth over the long-term (5-10 years) by investing at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in the shares of European Sustainable Companies (excluding the UK) in any economic sector, or companies that demonstrate improving sustainable characteristics. Sustainable Companies are those that the Investment Manager believes to have effective governance and superior management of environmental and social issues (sustainable characteristics).
At least 80% of assets invested in equities of Sustainable Companies, or companies that demonstrate improving sustainable characteristics, that are domiciled, or carrying out the main part of their economic activity, in a European country (excluding the UK).
New fund objective: The Fund aims to provide income with the potential to grow the amount you invested over the medium to long term.
The Fund invests at least two-thirds of its assets in below investment grade bonds (which are similar to a loan and pay a fixed or variable interest rate) priced in Euros or British Pounds and issued by companies in Europe, including the UK, or companies that have significant operations there. Bonds rated as below investment grade are bonds that have received lower ratings from international agencies that provide such ratings. These bonds are considered riskier than higher rated bonds but typically pay a higher income.
The Fund may also invest in asset classes and instruments different from those stated above.
The Fund is actively managed in reference to the ICE BofA European Currency High Yield Excluding Subordinated Financials Constrained Index. The index is broadly representative of the securities in which the Fund invests, and provides a suitable target benchmark against which Fund performance will be measured and evaluated over time. The Fund promotes environmental and social characteristics by aiming to compare favourably against the index over rolling 12-month periods when assessed according to the Columbia Threadneedle ESG (environmental, social and governance) Materiality Rating. The index is not designed to specifically consider environmental or social characteristics. The fund manager has discretion to select investments with weightings different to the index, and that are not in the index, and the Fund may display significant divergence from the index.
The Fund also aims to exclude companies that breach accepted international standards and principles (e.g. the United Nations Global Compact) unless the fund manager believes that there are tangible mitigating factors for the company to be held.

Update to fund’s prospectus: Introduction of rapid sales provision, which will enable the ACD of the M&G Property Portfolio to agree with the Standing Independent Valuer a fair and reasonable price to reflect the rapid sale of a property. Although this may result in selling a property at a lower price than its market value, it is expected that the use of the Provision will solely be used under exceptional circumstances such as periods in which wider market uncertainty leads to sustained high levels of outflows.

We are changing the pricing basis that we usually use on a daily basis to value the ReAssure Life fund range from expanding to contracting from 4th May 2021.
The contracting price is based on the price issued by the Manager of the underlying fund to sell units (the ‘bid’ price), whereas the expanding price is based on the price to buy units in the underlying fund (the ‘offer’ price). The ‘bid’ price will be lower than the ‘offer’ price due to the additional expenses involved when the underlying fund manager needs to buy additional assets.
By carrying out this change, customer valuations will reflect the pricing basis that they are likely to receive on exiting the fund in question.
The expanding pricing basis may still be used on days where there is more investment into the fund than taken out.

The global outbreak of coronavirus is impacting property funds. From 16 March 2020 a number of funds have been suspended by the fund management groups.
Link Fund Solutions, the Authorised Corporate Director (ACD) of the suspended Woodford Equity Income fund, have informed us that the fund will be wound up on 17 January 2020 and that Woodford Investment Management will cease to be the investment manager with immediate effect.
Link Fund Solutions concluded that it was unlikely that the sale of unlisted and less liquid assets would be completed ahead of a planned re-opening in December and therefore an orderly wind up would be in the best interest of all investors
Following the first capital income payment (75.55%) from the fund in late January, we have received the second capital payment from the investment manager, Link Fund Solutions Limited (LFS), and have allocated it to investors, in line with their holdings in the suspended fund. Note that this second payment is much smaller than the first, being equivalent to 19.9% of the Fund’s remaining value as at 10 March 2020. We will be writing to you shorlty.
The fund was suspended on the 3 June 2019 due to an increased level of withdrawals from the fund by investors. The suspension was intended to protect investors who wish to remain in the fund by allowing Woodford time to reposition the element of the fund’s portfolio invested in unquoted and less liquid stocks and shares, in to more liquid investments that would be easier to trade.
The winding up will commence on 17 January 2020 and means that you are still unable to put any money into, or send us new requests to take money out of, the fund.
Link is planning to return cash to you at the earliest opportunity, and has appointed BlackRock Advisors (UK) Limited and specialist broker Park Hill to help sell the assets. The first payment to you is anticipated by the end of January 2020. As the fund is now closed, the money will be returned to you in instalments as the assets are sold off.
We are in communication with Link Fund Solutions and we will communicate further with you once we have further information from them explaining in more detail what the wind up will mean for your investments.
Dealing in the M&G Feeder of Property Portfolio Fund has been suspended with effect from 4 December 2019.
In recent months, continued political uncertainty and ongoing structural shifts in the UK retail sector have prompted unusually high outflows from M&G’s retail property fund. Given that these circumstances and deteriorating market conditions have significantly impacted the manager’s ability to sell commercial property, the manager has temporarily suspended dealing in the M&G Property Portfolio in the interests of protecting customers who are invested in these funds.
The suspension will allow the manager to raise cash levels and preserve value for investors by selling assets in a controlled manner.
At the moment, the suspended fund will still be priced each day, and the value of your units in the M&G fund will be included in the overall value of your investments you will see online and in statements. As it is not possible to buy or sell units in a suspended fund, you will be unable to top-up (either via regular direct debit or on an adhoc basis), switch into or out of the fund or make new withdrawals out of the fund.
In recognition of customers’ temporary inability to access their investment, M&G is waiving 30% of its annual charge, which will end when the funds resume dealing.
The fund suspension will remain in place until we are notified that the suspension instruction has been lifted. Based on the information we have received so far, the suspension could be in place for a number of months.
Please note: Direct Debits will no longer be accepted and will be redirected to OMR Deposit. Phased investment and rebalancing will be cancelled.
Please note: Dealing will recommence for the valuation point of Tuesday 8 October 2019.
