Key Features

About the Fund

Aims to provide investors with pre-tax returns that equal the returns of the Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index (Index), known as True Indexing'.

True Indexing is designed to result in pre-tax returns for investors that equal the returns provided by the Index.

Mandate

How we invest your money

True Indexing is designed to result in pre-tax returns for investors that equal the returns provided by the Index. The Fund achieves this by:

  1. investing in fixed and floating rate securities, derivatives (including options, futures, warrants and forwards) and cash, either directly or through underlying funds that are managed by members of the Macquarie Group (Underlying Investments) with the aim of providing exposure that closely resembles the exposure of the Index, and
  2. entering into a swap agreement with Macquarie Financial Holdings Pty Limited (Swap Counterparty). If the Underlying Investments outperform the Index, the Swap Counterparty receives this outperformance. If the Underlying Investments underperform the Index, the Swap Counterparty compensates the Fund to the extent of the underperformance.

These arrangements enable the Fund to provide True Indexing regardless of the performance of the Underlying Investments.
