About Standard Life

Standard Life Ireland is part of UK-based Phoenix Group Holdings since 2021, though the Standard Life brand continues in the Irish market. The product line is built around the MyFolio ranges — MyFolio Market (passive), MyFolio Managed (actively-managed) and MyFolio Sustainable (ESG-screened) — each running across five risk levels for 15 possible combinations.

Strengths

MyFolio structure makes it easy to pick an active, passive or sustainable variant at your chosen risk level.
MyFolio Sustainable V gives ESG-focused savers a mainstream, broker-available option at 0.90% AMC.
Risk-banding is consistent and documented — easy to compare equivalent risk levels across providers.

Watch-outs

Several brand transitions (Standard Life, Phoenix) can make it hard to figure out who actually owns your plan.
AMC of 0.85–0.90% is fair but not market-leading on passive exposure.
