Emerging market equities (alternative indices) 9. Emerging market debt Each NEST Retirement Date follows a glide path with a varying asset allocation each year. The Starter is for members who join NEST before they are eligible for auto enrolment. The Post Retirement fund is for members who stay with NEST past their State Pension age and do not tell us which year they would prefer to retire in. Members money can also be moved to the Post Retirement if they ve selected a retirement date between their 55th birthday and their State Pension Age if they don t retire on the date they chose. This is because the NEST Retirement Date they were invested in would have matured and closed down and at this stage we move the money over to the Post Retirement. The glide path allocation is managed dynamically and factors in market conditions that contribute to delivering the investment objectives. Please see Figure 1 for a breakdown of the asset allocation of each NEST Retirement Date. NEST Ethical this fund is automatically lifestyled across three phases.
