Fund Aims

The fund aims to produce growth over the medium to long-term (5 to 10 years or more) while smoothing some of the ups and downs of short-term investment performance. The fund spreads investment risk by investing in a range of different asset types, which currently includes UK and international equities, property, fixed interest securities, index-linked securities and other specialist investments. The fund is actively managed and aims to limit the fluctuations (‘volatility’) the fund experiences to 14.5% per annum (before smoothing). There is no guarantee the fund will achieve its objective of managing the volatility below this limit. In addition to generating financial returns most of the underlying funds apply at least one of the three ESG investing approaches: 1. Mitigating Environmental, Social and Governance risks and minimising negative outcomes 2. Pursuing Environmental, Social and Governance opportunities 3. Focussing on addressing environmental and social issues.

Important Information

Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.

We can't predict the future. Past Performance isn't a guide to future performance. For the range of PruFund funds, what you receive will depend on the value of the underlying investments, the smoothing process, our charges, and when you take your money out.

Source of portfolio data: Broadridge. Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of product charges, or any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in the fund's currency of denomination with gross income reinvested. The value of your investment can go down as well as up so you might get back less than you put in.

This factsheet is for information purposes only. If there is information or terminology included that you would like to discuss, then please contact an adviser. Investors should refer to their policy documentation and supporting brochures for fund availability, investment strategy, any product information and charges.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) related fund measures

Explanation of Climate Metric

The Weighted Average Carbon Intensity (WACI) is a metric used to report our funds’ carbon (CO2) emissions based on the companies the fund invests in. It is a measure of how much CO2 is being emitted per million of sales by those companies. For investment in Property we work out a Greenhouse Gas Intensity metric. This differs slightly from the WACI as it’s based on emissions per million of assets under management. The level of carbon emissions is not a specific fund objective.

ESG Category Definition

ESG Risk Focused

An approach that considers the risk of impacts on the value of an investment caused by an ESG issue. For example, considering where a company’s share price might be impacted by the possible negative effects of its products, services or operations. A broad range of exclusions are applied*.

ESG Opportunity Focused

An approach that actively looks to invest in ESG opportunities. For example, by investing in companies that aim to operate in a more sustainable way, compared to their competitors, over time and therefore potentially giving them an advantage. A broad range of exclusions are applied*.

ESG Solution Focused

An approach that proactively looks for solutions to ESG challenges. For example, this could mean investing in solutions that target pressing social or environmental issues. A broad range of exclusions are applied*.

Exclusions*

Exclusions (or places we aim to avoid investing in) apply to sectors such as controversial weapons, coal, adult entertainment, gambling and United Nations Global Compact violators (which focus on areas such as human rights, labour standards and anti-corruption). In some instances the funds PruFund Planet invests in may not align with all of these exclusions, although T&IO aim to ensure adherence to their ESG Policy to the greatest extent possible. There are instances where a particular fund may not feature a sector exclusion, but by the nature of its strategy it is unlikely to invest in that sector. For example, a fund investing in the water industry is unlikely to also hold a tobacco company.

You can find out more about PruFund Planet at www.pru.co.uk/investments/investing-for-good/prufund-planet/. For more information specifically about exclusions then please speak to your financial adviser.

Uncategorised Assets**

The percentage amounts held in Risk, Opportunity and Solution Focussed may not always add up to exactly 100%. This can be due to an asset that we want to invest into not being immediately available (Property for example). When that happens we may invest in an alternative asset, which we think can give us a similar return, but which isn’t categorised. We will aim to minimise the amount of time that we are invested in these alternative assets and, over the longer term, we will always aim to invest in assets that can be categorised as either Risk, Opportunity or Solution Focused.
