Benefits of investing in the Antares Dividend Builder

Access to Antares' investment expertise

Antares believes that the pricing of individual companies and industry sectors on the Australian share market is at times inefficient. This mispricing can occur when investors take a short-term view, over-react or under-react to changes in a company's operating environment, or invest based on generalisations about similar companies. As a consequence, the price of a company sometimes differs from what Antares believes its value to be.

Antares seeks to identify and exploit these opportunities by taking a longer-term view, and through detailed systematic research of individual companies from a bottom-up perspective. In practical terms, Antares seeks to invest in companies trading on the share market at the largest discount to their underlying value.

Bottom-up research by experienced investment professionals

Underpinning Antares' approach to stock selection is an experienced team of analysts. The team gathers information through financial analysis, peer group comparison and company visits to gain a thorough understanding of the companies and the issues they face. Antares' detailed systematic research of companies is the foundation for all its investment decisions.

Investment style

Our investment philosophy is based on the premise that the pricing of individual stocks in the Australian sharemarket is at times inefficient.

This mispricing occurs for a number of reasons:

• investors take a short-term view;

• investors under or over react to changes in a company's operating

• environment; and

• investors make incorrect generalisations about similar companies.

We believe these inefficiencies can be exploited through bottom-up stock selection.

How we invest your money

Investment approach

Antares' strategy is to invest in a diversified portfolio of high yielding Australian listed equities that aim to grow their dividends over time, with an emphasis on securing franked income and minimising portfolio turnover to keep net realised capital gains low.

Antares' investment process will involve the selection and investment in equities with a dividend yield return that is in the top quartile of the Benchmark.

In general, Antares aims to invest in companies where the current share price does not fully reflect its view of the potential value of each company's business. Through company contact and detailed financial and non-financial analysis, Antares research analysts gain a first-hand understanding of Australian businesses and the industries in which they operate.

Indicative asset allocation ranges

• Australian equities: 90 - 100%

Use of derivatives

The Fund generally uses these investments for the purpose of cash management and to minimise investment risk. The Fund can invest in a range of derivatives, typically exchange traded options or Share Price Index (SPI) contracts. These are futures contracts that provide exposure to Australia's top 200 companies without having to buy or sell shares in every company in the Index. Derivatives will not be used within the Fund for gearing purposes. More information on how derivatives are used in the Fund is in Derivatives risk' in section 4 of the PDS.
