Future Planet Capital and Mobius Partner to Deliver Pension Access to UK Innovation

LONDON – 16 December 2025 - Future Planet Capital (FPC) and Mobius today announce a strategic partnership that enables UK pension schemes to invest directly in the nation’s high-growth, high-impact businesses through the British Co-Investment Fund (BCF), building on the initiative FPC unveiled in 2024 to open pension investment routes into UK innovation.

The collaboration brings together FPC’s British Co-Investment Fund, focused on high-growth private companies across climate, life sciences and deep tech and the Mobius platform, which serves over 650 pension schemes with assets exceeding £30 billion. Together, they provide an operational bridge between pension capital and venture-stage opportunity.

 

Recently recognised by the British Private Equity & Venture Capital Association (BVCA) as “Impact Manager of the Year,” FPC will manage the British Co-Investment Fund, which will be made available via the Mobius platform. The partnership represents one of the first structures of its kind, enabling defined contribution (DC) pension schemes to invest in venture and growth-stage companies through a unit-linked life structure. This creates a scalable, compliant model that addresses liquidity, governance and fiduciary requirements while unlocking long-term pension capital for UK innovation.

 

“When we announced the British Co-Investment Fund last year, our goal was to make UK innovation investable for UK pensions,” said Douglas Hansen-Luke, Executive Chairman and Founder of FPC. “Through this partnership with Mobius, that vision is becoming reality.”

 

“We are delighted to work with Future Planet Capital in delivering innovative investments into pension portfolios through our highly efficient structure,” added Joshun Sandhu, Head of Investment Solutions & Partnerships at Mobius.

 

The new partnership formalises a structure whereby the British Co-Investment Fund, managed by FPC will be available through Mobius, allowing schemes to allocate efficiently via an established, FCA-compliant framework.
