Competitor returns are based on customers invested in their default plans.DWA have estimated the Gross Returns based on available information for a member with a typical pot size of £10,000 and an average salary of £30,000. DWA have estimated the Net Returns net of all costs and charges based on available information for a member with a typical pot size of £10,000 and an average salary of £30,000.
Actual returns may vary depending on a variety of factors including specific costs negotiated by a member's employer, actual pot size and actual salary. Where possible we have used actual return series available, though in assumptions have been made based on the underlying funds because of poor data availability and this may also result in some variance. The effect of charges have been applied to the return series on a monthly basis via a subtraction/addition of the proportionate amount, this may create small discrepancies with actual experience depending on charging structure. DWA are happy to correct any discrepancies should evidence be provided.
