Corporate Class

“Corporate class” is a term used to describe a mutual fund structure that helps you make tax-efficient investments. Unlike typical mutual funds, which are set up as trusts, corporate class is a mutual fund line-up set up under the umbrella of a corporation. Each fund offered represents a class of shares in the corporation.

You can switch from one fund to another as your circumstances change, without immediate tax consequences. You are generally only taxed when you take your assets out of the corporation, that is, redeem your investment. You may also receive distributions that are taxed more favourably than in a traditional trust structure.

With Standard Life’s corporate class, you enjoy all the benefits of our mutual fund line-up, with an added layer of tax-efficiency.
