How to transition from mps to timeline fund.
1.
Remove DFM Permissions
Ask your platform to remove Discretionary Fund Manager (DFM) permissions. This detaches the account from the MPS model. (Note: this may force-sell institutional-only assets on some platforms).
2.
Sell Down to Cash
Once the account is adviser-directed, sell all holdings to cash. This typically takes 2–5 business days. Some platforms can queue the fund purchase in parallel to reduce downtime.
3.
Invest in TM Timeline Fund
Reinvest the cash into your chosen Timeline Fund. Lump sum and regular contributions are both supported.
4.
Be Aware of Tax Implications
Selling MPS assets may trigger capital gains tax if gains exceed your client’s allowance. Your platform can generate a capital gains tax report to help with any tax filing.
