Managed - This fund invests in a broad range of Irish and international company shares, property, government securities and cash.
Consensus - The Consensus Fund is a passively managed investment fund. It aims to track the average performance of Irish fund managers as measured by a quarterly independent survey. Within asset classes it uses a passive, index tracking approach, which eliminates the risk of choosing the wrong investment manager.

Default Investment Strategy
For those not wishing to choose their own funds, the Default Investment Strategy is New Ireland's range of Individual Retirement Investment Service (IRIS) funds. If you use this strategy, New Ireland assume that on reaching retirement age you intend to use your PRSA assets mainly to purchase a pension. The general principle of this strategy is to move from a high equituy content to a high fixed interest content as retirement age approaches.
