OUR INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Capital stability and regular income.

The Fund aims to provide regular income with capital stability (i.e low variability in the Fund’s unit price). Variations in the unit price can occur from time to time due to market factors and other factors influencing the prices of securities in the portfolio. The Fund targets a return to investors in excess of the 90 day Bank Bill Swap Rate (BBSW) as published by the ASX on its website (until 15 December 2020 the Benchmark rate was the Reserve Bank of Australia’s cash rate). Our aim is minimal risk of capital loss in medium term.

    • The Fund targets a return to investors in excess of the 90 day BBSW rate.
    • Benchmark consistently exceeded since Fund inception 2014
