Work Pernsion

[Steev P]

I've just realised i've not put my work pension into MS Money (not sure if it can be tracked anyway), same for another personal pension I have but ill just talk about the work pension here.

I think i am right in saying that the fund i am in actually consists of 3 funds (see link),

Ive looked at the help page on Dan Gayers plugin (which im using the trial version of atm) but in truth i dont understand what is being said there for the most part, i did search for the word SEDOL though and that is not on there, i am guessin gthat the SEDOL is different to the ticker so I am unsure how to cater for this/these investments in MS Money

Any advise would be appreciated

Search here  Gaier Software - Financial Instrument - Search

Enter "Aegon Blackrock" in the search bar

If use use the Instrument Id you may be able to get updated prices

I add Aegon Blackrock UK Equity Tracker to my Money file

I gave it the symbol GB:AGN1 in Money

I added the the line AGN1 ba57ww in the SymbolMap.csv file
I launched the MSNMONEYQUOTES program to update my share prices
It retrieved and update the Aegon Blackrock UK Equity fund price to £ 3.216 as at 04/08/2025 01:00

I suspect that the prices of the funds are only updated at the end of the day

So everything works as expected

It could be that the Pension funds are not available to MSN Money in which case there is not much you can do other than update them manually

Dear Steev

I think this could be a little more complex than Joe is suggesting.

Looking at the first fund in your screenshot, which has a SEDOL BV9GVM4, this is the Aegon BlackRock LifePath Capital 2031-2033 (BLK) fund, but according to the “All Units” tab on this page on Trustnet (https://www.trustnet.com/factsheets/P/P5IP/aegon-blackrock-lifepath-capital-2031-2033-blk-pn-q) there appears to be at least 16 classes of units in that fund, and you appear to hold class Q units https://www.trustnet.com/factsheets/P/P5IP/aegon-blackrock-lifepath-capital-2031-2033-blk-pn-q

The latest price for those units (as at 4 August) was 86.5660p, and the prices for other classes of units in the fund are different.  The full ISIN code for class Q is GB00BV9GVM47.  You’ll see that the ISIN adds four characters to the front of the SEDOL, and an additional numeral (which, I believe, is a checksum) at the end.

Trustnet appears to be the only website (other than the Aegon website (search using the SEDOL code, here: https://digital.feprecisionplus.com/AegonDC) where I can find any pricing information on this fund, and I can’t find the fund, let alone the class Q units, on the Gaier financial instrument search.  As Joe says, it looks like these particular pension funds aren’t available on MSN Money.

So, you may be able to add the holdings into the Portfolio Manager in Money, but I don’t think you’ll be able to use MSMoneyQuotes to update the prices – you’ll have to update the prices manually.

Kind regards

Bill
