M&G has been helping people to prosper by putting their investments to work for more than 88 years. Today we manage the long-term savings of millions of people across Europe, Asia and the Americas. Our customers include private investors, members of pension schemes and life insurance policyholders. We think of ourselves as active allocators of capital for people who care where their money goes. Our approach is long-term and we encourage our team to think creatively, to act with conviction and to work collaboratively on investment strategies to meet our customers’ changing needs. It’s an approach which has helped M&G to grow its customers’ assets under management to £276.7 billion (as of 30 June 2019). Our range of investment strategies has also grown: alongside cash, international bonds and shares, we also put our customers’ money to work in global real estate and alternative investments such as infrastructure. We are part of M&G plc, a leading savings and investments business formed in 2017 through the merger of M&G Investments with life insurance and financial services company Prudential UK. As an independent company, M&G plc has a single corporate identity and continues with two customer-facing brands; Prudential for savings and insurance customers in the UK and Europe and for asset management in South Africa and M&G Investments for asset management clients globally.
