Schroders is delighted to partner with Hargreaves Lansdown, the UK’s number one investment and savings platform, to offer the UK’s first Long-Term Asset Funds (LTAFs) tailored for experienced private investors. These funds provide direct, cost-effective access to private markets through an exclusive share class, opening up asset classes and opportunities that have historically been reserved for large institutional and high-net-worth investors.
Our Long-Term Asset Funds give experienced individual investors access to globally diversified private market portfolios, investing in innovative unlisted companies and renewable infrastructure assets supporting the energy transition. These funds can offer valuable diversification and the potential to enhance long-term portfolio growth and, for the first time, will be available in a Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP).

What is an LTAF?
Long-Term Asset Funds (LTAFs) are a relatively new type of fund for UK investors that are designed to open access to private market investments that have historically only been available to a minority of investors. With LTAFs, individual investors can diversify their portfolio, access investments beyond the stock market with less correlated returns, and support the wider UK economy, all while investing in assets designed for long-term growth.

- Hargreaves Lansdown is partnering with Schroders Capital to add two of its private markets Long-Term Asset Funds (LTAFs) to the platform week commencing 15 September, offering a step change in the availability of LTAFs to the retail investment market.
