Key Features
About the FundThe Fund is actively managed by the Investment Manager and aims to take advantage of investment opportunities within the Australian cash and fixed-income markets. Investment in the Fund is not the same as putting your money into a bank account. The Fund invests in cash instruments and investment grade debt securities, including at-call deposits, term deposits, bank bills, money market securities and investment-grade bonds issued by governments, government-owned enterprises, banks and companies. The Fund may also invest in units in an ASX-listed fund or trust that solely invests in Australian-dollar denominated deposits, issued by Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions (ADIs) which are regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA). It is also possible that from time to time derivatives may be used to manage the Fund's risks when considered appropriate. |
Mandate
How we invest your moneyAlthough the Fund is not the same as a bank account, the Fund does have a conservative investment approach:
The Fund also has access to liquidity facilities that allow assets that are classified as "eligible securities for repurchase by the RBA to be swapped with major Australian and international trading banks in exchange for cash, subject to these banks accepting these assets as part of their own repurchase operations. The Fund targets having at least 30% of its investments in cash and investment-grade assets that are classified as such repurchase eligible securities. |
