Which companies does my Nest pension pot invest in?

We carefully invest the money in your pension pot. That means we invest in companies and projects that we think will grow in value and boost your savings. Depending on the fund you’re in, your money is invested in many things from UK property to everyday household brands to green energy infrastructure such as wind and solar farms. 

How do I find out what companies I invest in?

We’ve created an online investment information tool that allows you to check the companies you invest in, so you can have a better understanding of where your money goes.

The tool lets you browse companies you invest in, which are categorised alphabetically.

What if I invest in companies I don’t want to?

The companies you invest in will depend on your Nest fund. When you start saving with us, you’ll be put into one of our Nest Retirement Date Funds that matches the year we think you’ll start withdrawing your savings. This is automatically set to your State Pension age. For example, if you’ll reach your State Pension age in 2055, you’ll be put in the 2055 Nest Retirement Date Fund. 

We have a range of funds that you can choose to put your savings into. For example, you can choose a fund that matches your beliefs or faith such as our Ethical fund or our Sharia Fund.

Why can’t I see everything I invest in?

At the moment the tool shows you the companies you invest in. If you want to see a breakdown of where else your fund is invested, such as real estate or government bonds as well as the different types of investment you hold, our quarterly investment reports contain lots of useful information.

How up to date is the tool?

We refresh the data every 3 months so you can see the latest information about the companies you invest in.

Why are you giving me this information?

Being transparent is important to us - that’s why we’re making it easier for you to get to know some of the companies you invest in. We want you to know what happens to your money, so you feel close to your hard-earned retirement savings.
