Indicative asset allocation ranges
Currency managementThe Fund's units are valued in Australian dollars but the Fund invests in assets located in other countries, so they are valued in different currencies. The Fund's exposure to international assets is not hedged to the Australian dollar. This means the value of the Fund will change both due to movements in asset values and shifts in the exchange rate between the Australian dollar and overseas currencies. However, at times, Intermede may wish to invest in companies in a particular country without having full exposure to its currency movements. In these cases, it may enter into currency hedging contracts. |
