Ignis Asset Management

Ignis Asset Management manages Phoenix Group’s substantial assets, providing dedicated fund management expertise for Phoenix Life's 6 million customers. Ignis also serves third-party clients. It has £78bn* in assets under management and distributes a range of global investment services.

Investment performance, and the risk taken to achieve it, is at the heart of the business model.  Ignis believes that entrepreneurial teams operating in standalone business units are best placed to meet, or exceed, clients' performance needs.  These Ignis business units, each focused on a particular investment capability, are able to devise their own process while sharing a common pool of resources.

The Ignis business units are: Fixed Income, Equities, Real Estate, Advisors (a specialist alternatives fund of funds team), Solutions (Liability Driven Investment, Asset Liability Management and related risk mitigation) and Partners (fund management businesses operating in partnership with Ignis).
