Scam: "Irish Life Fixed Rate Passive Global Equity Fund"

[Brendan Burgess]

​ ​ ​

​ ​ ​ Important note on fake documentation in circulation​ Dear Broker We have become aware of a bogus fund prospectus that is in circulation, purporting to be from Irish Life and Irish Life Investment Managers. The name of the bogus fund is "Fixed Rate Passive Global Equity Fund". This prospectus is not genuine, there is no such fund available nor is one planned. If you or your clients come across this prospectus in circulation, we would be grateful if you could report it through your account manager. Kind regards,

To be fair, even a fund that doesn’t actually exist probably has a good shot at outperfoming MAPS…

It seems that there's also a fake "Aviva Fixed Rate Passive Global Equity Fund" doing the rounds. Got a similar warning e-mail from Aviva today.
