Credit and UK Bonds
Lewisham Pension Fund is reallocating £95 million to credit and UK government bonds as part of a revised investment strategy.
Lewisham Pension Fund's Pensions Committee approved a revised investment strategy on 15 October 2026, which includes increasing its holdings in credit and UK government bonds. This decision involves reallocating £95 million from an equity fund to a credit fund, influenced by new LGPS governance and pooling regulations.
Further allocations to index-linked government bonds are also planned by the Lewisham Pension Fund as part of this strategic shift. There are no upcoming council meetings scheduled to discuss credit and UK bonds, which are investments in debt securities issued by corporations and the UK government.
