Key Features
About the FundThe Milliman Managed Risk Multi-Index High Growth Fund (the Fund) offers investors access to long-term capital growth through exposure to equity markets, while simultaneously providing downside protection against market volatility. The Fund uses futures to hedge assets that act independently of the underlying portfolio to help foster growth in up markets while defending against losses in down markets. The Fund aims to provide long-term capital growth through exposure to equity markets while utilising a risk management strategy designed to reduce volatility and minimise losses in declining markets. The fund aims to perform in line with the underlying fund's composite benchmark over rolling five-year periods before fees and taxes with lower volatility and improved risk adjusted returns over a full market cycle. Investment philosophy and processContrary to many risk management strategies available today, Milliman's approach relies on some of the simplest, most liquid hedge assets available, with a key focus on efficient and predictable rules-based risk management. Milliman's actuarial pedigree, capital markets expertise and understanding of the dynamics of retirement, enable them to provide valuable solutions to meet the challenges of advisers and their clients. Milliman's risk management techniques have been tested for over 20 years and through two market crises (the 2000 Internet bubble and the 2008 global financial crisis). The Milliman Managed Risk Strategy aims to stabilise the volatility of an investment portfolio during periods of significant and sustained market declines, providing investors with the same risk management techniques used by major financial institutions around the world. The Milliman Managed Risk Funds investment philosophy is defined by four core beliefs:

Mandate
How we invest your moneyThe fund is exposed to a diversified portfolio of shares and property and infrastructure securities to provide potential for capital growth. The fund will also utilise exchange traded index futures contracts to implement the fund's objective of reducing overall portfolio volatility and providing downside protection by hedging against the fund's equity market risk (the property and infrastructure exposures will be excluded from this process). The fund may also hedge the currency exposure in relation to the downside protection. Consequently, the fund may underperform in rising equity markets and may also limit losses in falling markets. The fund aims to hedge currency risk in relation to the underlying fund except for the allocation to emerging market shares and part of the allocation to global shares. Important information on emerging markets risk is provided on page 19 of the PDS. The fund's composite benchmark is 29.0% S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index, 15.0% MSCI All Country World (ex Australia) Index (AUD hedged), 15.0% MSCI All Country World (ex Australia) Index, 10.0% MSCI Emerging Markets Index, 10.0% FTSE Developed Core Infrastructure 50/50 Index (AUD hedged), 10.0% FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Rental Index (AUD hedged), 6.0% MSCI World Small Cap Index, 5.0% S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries Accumulation Index.
