The government expects investment in the UK to increase. This much is clear to all of us. While this will be driven by all areas of the UK pensions market, for the LGPS, there’s an additional demand to invest ‘locally’.

Investing locally will be new to much of the LGPS. We see the opportunities as being split between investing in real assets and investing in private companies. This article outlines the options for investing in private companies and how LGPS funds can fit this in their strategies.

We're exploring the questions: 

  • How are local companies funded?
  • How can LGPS funds invest in local companies?
  • What actions can we take now?
