AXA and AMP scheme merger closer

AMP Wealth KiwiSaver members will be transferred to the AMP KiwiSaver scheme in August.

Tuesday, June 11th 2013, 6:38AM

The move was first proposed in February and AMP says the scheme will incorporate some of the benefits of the Wealth scheme but will offer lower fees and a wider range of investment options.

It is still awaiting FMA approval.

The proposed transfer follows a realignment of AMP’s investment proposition. This includes a review of strategic asset allocation for AMP diversified funds and a move to a consistent investment philosophy across the AMP product offering.

It follows the AMP merger with AXA.

AMP has more than 260,000 KiwiSavers and 16% of the KiwiSaver funds under management.

Jack Regan, AMP’s managing director, said:  “AMP’s core focus on investment, extensive network of professional qualified advisers, and scale to invest in ongoing product and service development to meet the needs of members is a real point of difference in the KiwiSaver market.”
