How to invest

Schroders funds are available for direct investment or indirect investment via a financial adviser or other intermediary.

Direct investment with Schroders

Others are outlined in their PDS or offer document.

Schroders may record and monitor telephone calls for security, training and compliance purposes.

Invest via the mFund settlement service

Schroders currently offers ten funds on the mFund Settlement Service across a range of asset classes. The mFund Settlement Service allows you to buy, hold and sell units in Schroders unlisted managed funds through a process similar to buying and selling shares.

To invest in a Schroders fund via the mFund Settlement Service it is necessary to firstly read the relevant fund PDS and the accompanying additional information book and other relevant fund information.

Next, you need to contact a participating broker. You can use a full service or online broker. Click here to see the list of available brokers on the mFund website.

The broker will require instructions for a buy or sell order and payment for new units in the chosen Schroders fund.

Following completion of the transaction an mFund confirmation and CHESS statement will be sent to you.
