Fund Manager's profile says he is 'a module leader on the IPF's Investment Education Programme'............needs to focus on what my management fees are paying for without these distractions!

You should get yourself another adviser if can't give you an explanation! Fund is now back to offer pricing.

Sorry, I meant outflows exceeding inflows - i.e. contracting fund size.

The fund moved from an 'offer' to 'bid' basis as inflows exceeded outflows. You should speak to your Financial Adviser for a further explanation on what is happening with the fund.

Thanks for your explanation. That is what Aviva have now told me in a letter which I have just received, dated 24th March. I am sorry, but I should have made it clear in my original post, I did approach my advisers. They were not able to tell me anything, as Aviva had not announced anything. As far as I know, this is still the position.

I don't see why pertinent information like this should be held back from investors and advisors, and require individuals to pursue the company to get at the information.

It just gets worse. On Friday 18th March, the fund dropped nearly 5%. That means that this fund has suddenly lost over £80M. There is absolutely nothing reported by Aviva. I have searched everywhere for information with no luck.

Even Aviva themselves will not give out any definite information. I have asked to speak to someone dealing with fund and been refused. They say they will respond in writing. I am waiting!

How are you supposed to make any decision (other than the obvious)? If they treat investors like this, it must surely be too dangerous to stay.

I feel angry that they can sit there and get away with this contempt.

35% down for me. What are they doing? B.Kennedy

I have lost most my savings in this badly run fund.

The Managers appear to be asleep
at the wheel, don't they?

Regards, Mike Spenser.

Me too. 32% loss thus far - useless!
