Capital at risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested..
Do more with your savings
In a world where it’s hard to find income, investing can be a solution. But it can seem like a complicated and difficult thing to do.
The MyMap range takes the hard work out of investing. They’re ready-made funds that make investing simple and cost-effective, whilst risk is managed. Meaning your money works harder and can do more for you.
Key benefits
Risk: There can be no guarantee that the investment strategy can be successful and the value of investments may go down as well as up.
Simple investing with the right level of investment risk for you and your long-term goals.
Low-cost access to the financial markets, meaning you keep more of your returns.
Managed by our expert team to ensure the best possible returns for a pre-defined level of risk.
A multi-asset approach to investing
With our multi-asset approach, your investment in one of our MyMap products is split between a number of different stock and bond funds. This provides diversification – different patterns of performance – which can protect an investor’s return over time, even when markets are volatile. We also make a small number of other fund investments that add further diversification, such as physical gold.
Risk: There can be no guarantee that the investment strategy can be successful and the value of investments may go down as well as up.
Risk: Diversification and asset allocation may not fully protect you from market risk.
Focusing on exchange-traded funds and index-tracking funds
BlackRock’s MyMap range invests through lower-cost exchange-traded funds (ETF) and index-tracking funds, as well as making some smaller investments in exchange-traded commodity (ETC) funds.
ETFs and index-tracking funds track the performance of stock and bond markets, while ETCs track the price of physical commodities, such as gold. When you invest in one of these products, you are investing in the make-up of a particular index rather than individual stocks and bonds.
A risk framework that makes sense for you
We aim to capture the investment upside, while managing the costs and risks associated with investing.
Each of our funds has a predefined risk profile, which is vital to achieving the right balance of risk and return potential – one that reflects your financial position and investment goals.

The potential for long-term returns
Our experienced team aims to deliver long-term returns in line with each fund’s pre-defined risk profile. The MyMap funds draw on BlackRock’s investment and risk expertise in order to determine their asset allocation, which in turn aims to deliver better outcomes in any given market environment.
A cost-effective way of investing
We understand why fees put savers off investing – because fees can limit returns. MyMap funds are built using ETFs and index-tracking funds as cost-efficient building blocks – allowing you to keep more of what you earn.
Our ESG range considers a broad range of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. We know these are issues our investors care about, because they are issues we care deeply about too.
We’ve expanded our range of ESG funds
We now have three ESG funds in the MyMap range so your money can work even harder and help you invest in a more sustainable way. These funds are for investors looking to align their sustainablity preferences with their investment goals. Investing in ESG funds is not just about your beliefs, passions and convictions, it could also help with long-term returns and provide resilience and diversification when markets are volatile.
