I have an old DB company pension with about £13k in it, and a limited choice of funds to put them in - currently it's all in the Legal & General Global Equities 60:40 fund, but should I look at diversifying it? This choice of funds was from 2013 but I doubt it's changed since. I've not paid into this pension since 2010, and got about 25 years left until I retire so not in a rush.

The 60:40 fund has one-star ratings from Trustnet etc, does that mean it's a bad fund to be in? It's doubled in 7 years, tracked most of the global equities funds there or thereabouts, and the fees within this pension wrapper are 0.3%, doesn't feel that high to me but hey....



An adviser from another company looked at it once and said just to leave everything as it was, as even though there was a limited number of funds it would cost money to transfer it all to a different pension so wasn't really worth it. Good advice?

Sorry yes, DC scheme, I'd just been handling my DB9 so a Freudian typo.

Yeah no other fees so will just keep it as is.
